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 empty skies
My love
To the dark
And the empty skies
The first time ever
I kissed your mouth
And felt your heart
Moving my head
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
I felt the earth
Move in my hand
I thought our joy
Would fill the earth
And last
'Till the end of time
My love
And last
'Till the end of time
