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.
The first time ever I kissed your lips, I felt the earth move in my hand, Like the trembling heart of a captive bird, That was there at my command.
The first time ever I lay with you, I felt your heart beat close to mine, And I knew our love would fill the earth, And would last till the end of time.
