The first time ever I saw your face   
                  Dm                    Am  Bb  
I thought the sun rose in your eyes  
                            C                    F  
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave  
            Eb                           F      
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,  
            Eb                         F  
to the dark and the empty skies.

The first time ever I kissed your mouth   
                 Dm                  Am    Bb  
I felt the earth move in my hands  
                           C              F  
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird  
                 Eb                  F                                         
That was there at my command, my love,   
              Eb                     F  
that was there at my command.

The first time ever I lay with you 
                   Dm                        Am   Bb 
And felt your heart beat close to mine 
                    C             F 
I thought our joy would fill the earth 
               Eb                     F 
And would last till the end of time, my love, 
                Eb                       F 
And would last till the end of time.
