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 empty sky.
And 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.
And 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 would last to the end of time,
And would last to the end of time.
