Ewan Mcgregor - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face lyrics

rate me

The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and stars Were the gift you gave To the dark and the endless skies, my love To the dark and the endless 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 lay with you And felt your heart beat close to mine I thought our joy Would fill the earth And last to the end of time, my love And last to the end of time The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and stars Were the gift you gave To the dark and the empty skies, my love To the dark and the empty skies
