The First Time Ever I Saw Your FaceThe first time ever I saw your faceI saw the sun rise in your eyes That the moon and stars were a gift you gave To the dark and the empty skies, my love To the dark and the empty skies The first time ever I kissed your mouth And felt the earth move close to mine Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command, my love That was there at my command The first time ever I lay with you And felt your heart beat close to mine I thought our joy would never end And would last till the end of time, my love And would last till the end of time |
