Текст песни The First Time Ever - The Brothers Four

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
I felt the Earth turn in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command
My love that was there at my command
The first time ever I held you close
I felt your heartbeat close to mine
I thought our joy would fill the Earth
And would last till the end of time
And would last till the end of time.
