The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and the stars were the gift you gave To the dark and empty skies (my love) The first time ever I kissed your mouth I felt the earth move 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 over mine And I thought our joy would fill the earth And last till the end of time my love And last to the end of time
