The perfect love song, charting the progress of a love that took over this person. Quite perfect. Although Roberta Flack sings this, it is equally applicable to both men and women. 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 This is love at first sight is it not? She is dazzling, stunning as creation itself. And 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 there, at my command, my love This is what love should be like. Yet so few of us would have experienced what has been conveyed in these lyrics. It's also about a power the singer has in this relationship and how he guards and treasures the most precious life in his hand . And 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 Enough said. Simply perfection. The first time, ever I saw Your face, your face Your fa-ace, your face |

The death of a soldier would have been a shit title. I guess this was better, Gonna close my eyes Girl and watch you go - Clearly he's saying goodbye as his love drifts from his conscious thoughts. Running through this life darling Like a field of snow He's seeing his life represented by snow which would usually fade in time as the seasons pass. Now his life is as powder snow in a field As the tracer glides In its graceful arc Send a little prayer out to ya 'cross the falling dark The tracer bullets are arcing across the sky above him as he watches it grow dark either in the sky or in his view as consciousness fades. Tell the repo man And the stars above You're the one I love Is it perhaps 'the reaper man' who is coming to collect him and deliver him to her? Perfect summers night Not a wind that breathes Just the bullets whispering gentle 'mongst the new green leaves Clearly in a conflict among the grass and bush, yet he has time to contextualise it as a perfect summers night. He would rather be whispering gentle to her but only the bullets are talking. There's things I might have said Only wish I could Now I'm leaking life faster Then I'm leaking blood He recognises the end is coming at pace and regrets the things he didn't get to say. Tell the repo man And the stars above You're the one I love You're the one I love The one I love Don't see Elysium Don't see no fiery hell Just the lights up bright baby In the bay hotel Next wave coming in Like an ocean roar Won't you take my hand darling On that old dance floor We can twist and shout Do the turtle dove And you're the one I love You're the one I love The one I love All the rest has been covered. |
