The First Time Ever (I Saw Your Face)

(álbum: Alone Again (Naturally) - 1972)

The first time
Ever I saw your face
I felt the sun rose
In your eyes
And the moon and stars
Were the gifts you gave
To the dark
And the empty skies my love
To the dark
And the empty skies

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
That was there
At my command

The first time
Ever I held you near
And felt your heart beat
Close to mine
I thought our joy
Would fill the earth
And would last
Till the end of time my love
And would last
Till the end of time

The first time
Ever I saw your face
