The first time, ever I saw your face,

I thought the Sun rose in your eyes

And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave

To the dawn and endless sky,



The first time, ever I kissed your lips,

I felt the earth, move in my hands

Like the trembling heart, of a captive bird

That was at my command, my love.



The first time, ever I lay with you,

I felt your heart, so close to mine

And I knew our joy, would fill the earth,

And last, 'til the end of time.



The first time, ever I saw your face,

Your face,

Your face,

Your face...
