Lyrics Marianne Faithfull – The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
Text:
The first time ever I saw your face
I saw the sun rise in your eyes
That the moon and stars were a gift 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 the earth move 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
The first time ever I lay with you
And felt your heart beat close to mine
I thought our joy would never end
And would last till the end of time, my love
And would last till the end of time
