| 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 the stars were the gifts you gave To the night and the empty skies my love To the night and the empty skies Seeing you for the first time was my biggest thrill to date I have never known a sweeter moment other than the birth or the embrace of a loved one. That is how much it means to me to see your face and to know that you exist. 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 kiss I feel in my dreams makes me tremble with each pass of your lips on mine. It makes me feel as giddy as a little bird captured in my hand and then carefully released. I am forever yours to do with as you wish but I know you will be gentle. 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 would last 'till the end of time my love And would last 'till the end of time Again, it�s only in my dreams that we share our love and that I feel your heart beat but it�s so real that it inspires me to put it into words and to share it with others. It�s steady beat let�s me know that you are alive and well and that I may still, one day, share my love. The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave To the night and the empty skies my love To the night and the empty skies I am and will be forever grateful that you live in my consciousness. The sun and the stars are proof of this. When I look up to them I see your face, your eyes and my heart is lifted up and I feel your kiss once more . . . my love. |
