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 empty skies.
|
And the first time ever I kissed your mouth
|
I felt the earth move in my hands.
|
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
|
That was there at my command, my love.
|
And 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 and last and last till the end of time, my love.
|
The first time ever I saw your face, your face,
|
