The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
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 move in my hand
Like a trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command
Oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the Earth move in my hand
Like a trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command
Oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command
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 move in my hand
Like a trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command
Oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the Earth move in my hand
Like a trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command
Oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command
