by Ewan McColl
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 empty skies,
my love, To the dark and the empty
skies.
The first time ever I kissed your
mouth And felt your heart beat close to
mine Like the trembling heart of a
captive bird That was there at my command, my
love 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 last till the end of time my
love It would last till the end of
time my love
The first time ever I saw your
face, your face, your face, your
face
