The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
The first time
Ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the Earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart
Of a captive bird
That was there, at my command
My love

[Verse 3]
And the first time
Ever I laid with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy
Would fill thе Earth
And last 'til the end of time
My lovе
[Outro]
The first time
Ever I saw your face
Your face
Your face
Your face
