    Dm         G       C
The first time, ever I saw your face
  Am             Em          C  F
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
        G            C
And the moon and the stars
                   G
Were the gifts you gave
       Bb                     C
To the dark, and the endless sky
 
My love
       Bb                     C
To the dark, and the endless skys
 
 
        Dm         G       C
And the first time, ever I kissed your mouth
  Am            Em        C  F
I felt the earth move in my hands
         G         C
Like the trembling heart
             G
Of a captive bird
         Bb         C
That was there, at my command
 
My love
         Bb         C
That was there, at my command
 
My love
 
 
        Dm         G       C
And the first time, ever I lay with you
  Am             Em         C  F
I felt your heart so close to mine
      G        C
And I knew our joy
               G
Would fill the earth
    Bb                     C
And last, till the end of time
 
My love
 
 
             Bb                     C
And it would last, till the end of time
 
My love
