The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face [Version 2] lyrics
Song information
Artist: Marianne Faithfull Album: North Country Maid
Lyrics
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 I felt the earth move 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 never end And would last till the end of time, my love And would last till the end of time
