Lyrics First time ever i saw your face Barbara Dickson

 558

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 stars were the gifts 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 so close to mine
And I knew that our joy would fill the earth
And last till the end of time, my love
And last till the end of time

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics FIRST TIME EVER I SAW YOUR FACE of BARBARA DICKSON is also present in the album Dark end of the street (1995)
