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 dark, and the endless skies

And the first time, ever I kissed your mouth
 I felt the earth move in my hands
 Like the trembling heart
 Of a captive bird
 That was there, at [bad word]  my love

And the first time, ever I lay with you
 I felt your heart so close to mine
 And I knew our joy
 Would fill the earth
 And last, til the end of time, my love

The first time, ever I saw
 Your face, your face
 Your fa-ace, your face
