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 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
The first time ever I lay with you I felt your heart so close to mine The first time ever I saw your face Your face, your face, your face
