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 hands
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 so close to mine

The first time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face
Your face
