The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face Lyrics
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
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
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 till the end of time, my love
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face
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
I felt the earth move in my hands
Like the trembling heart
Of a captive bird
That was there, at my command
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
Your face, your face
Your face
