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 stars were the gifts you gave To the dark and the endless sky, my love. The first time ever I kissed your mouth, I felt the earth move in my hand, Like a trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command, my love. 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 'till the end of time, my love, And last 'till the end of time.
