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 endless skies, my love 
To the dark and empty skies 
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 
That was there at my command 
The first time I ever lay with you 
And felt your heart so close to mine 
And I knew our joy would fill the world 
And would last till the end of time, my love 
It would last till the end of time 
The first time ever I saw your face 
Your face, your face
