Matt Cardle - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face lyrics

rate me

The first time ever I saw your faceThe first time ever I saw your faceI thought the sun rose in your eyesAnd the moon and stars were the gifts you gaveTo the night and the empty skies, my loveTo the night and the empty skiesThe first time ever I kissed your mouthI felt the earth turn in my handLike the trembling heart of a captive birdThat was there at my command, my loveThat was there at my commandThe first time ever I lay with youAnd felt your heart beat close to mineI thought our joy would fill the earthAnd last 'till the end of time, my loveAnd last 'till the end of timeThe first time ever I saw your faceI thought the sun rose in your eyesANd the moon and the stars were the gifts you gaveTo the night and the empty skies, my loveTo the night and the empty skies
