The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face |
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 night and the empty skies my love |
to the night and the empty skies |
the first time ever i kissed your mouth |
i felt the earth turn in my hand |
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 fill the earth |
and would last 'till the end of time my love |
and would last 'till the end of time |
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 night and the empty skies my love |
to the night and the empty skies |
