the first time ever ı saw your face
ı thought 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,

the first time ever ı kissed your mouth
ı felt the earth move in my hand
like the trembling heart of a captive bird
that was there at my command, my love

and the first time ever ı lay with you
ı felt your heart so close to mine
and ı knew our joy would fill the earth
and last till the end of time my love
