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 endless skies
My Love.

The first time, ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth moving in my hands
Like the trembling heart
Of a captive bird
That was there, at my command

The first time, ever I lay with you
And felt your heart be close to mine
I thought a joy would fill the earth
And last, til the end of time
My Love.
nd last, til the end of time

The first time, ever I saw
Your face
