The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face 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 mouth I felt the earth move through my hand Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command my love And the first time ever I lay with you I felt your heart so close to mine And I knew that time would fill the air At last Till the end of time my love Till the end of time
