The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were gifts
You gave to the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless 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 then at my, that was then at my command, my love
That was then at my, that was then 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 'til the end of time, my love
And last 'til the end of time
And last 'til the end of time
And last 'til the end of time
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were gifts
You gave to the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless 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 then at my, that was then at my command, my love
That was then at my, that was then 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 'til the end of time, my love
And last 'til the end of time
And last 'til the end of time
And last 'til the end of time
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
