First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

(album: From The Soul - 2005)

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 dark and the ended skies,

And the first time ever I kissed your mouth,
I felt the earth move in my hands,
Like a trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love,

And the very first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
An I know our joy would fill the earth
And last and last and last, and last
Til the end of time, my love,
ooh, and the first time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face...
