|
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 endless skies, my love |
|
To the dark and empty skies |
|
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 |
|
That was there at my command |
|
The first time I ever lay with you |
|
And felt your heart so close to mine |
|
And I knew our joy would fill the world |
|
And would last till the end of time, my love |
|
It would last till the end of time |
|
The first time ever I saw your face |
|
Your face, your face |
