First Time Ever I Saw Your Face Lyrics

Intro:
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 endless sky,
My love
And the first time
Ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move
Through my hands
Like the trembling heart
Of a captive bird
maj7/
That was there
At my com- mand
And first time
Ever I laid with you
I felt your heart
So close to mine
And I know our joy
Would fill the earth
And last
Till the end of time, my love.
The first time
Ever I saw
Your
Face.//
