The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

Intro: verse 1: The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes___ And the moon and stars were the gift you gave To the dark and the empty skies, my love To the dark and the empty skies verse 2: The first time ever I kissed your mouth I felt the earth turn in my hand____ Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there, at my command, my love That was there, at my command verse 3: The first time ever I lay with you And felt your heart beat close to mine____ I thought our joy would fill the earth And would last 'til the end of time, my love And last 'til the end of time verse 4: The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes____ And the moon and stars were the gift you gave To the dark and the empty skies, my love To the dark and the empty skies
