The first time
Ever I saw your face
I thought the sun
Rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars
Were the gifts you gave
To the dark
And the endless skies
And the first time
Ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth
Move in my hand
Like the trembling heart
Of a captive bird
That was there
At my command
The first time
Ever I lay with you
I felt your heart
So close to mine
And I knew our joy
Would fill the earth
And last
Till the end of time
My love
The first time
Ever I saw
Your face
Your face
Your face
Your face
