I thought the sun rose in your eyes
The moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and empty skies, my love
To the dark and empty skies
And the first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hands
That was there at my command, my love
That was there
And the first time ever I lay with you
And felt you heart so close to mine,
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
It would last till the end of time, my love
It would last till the end of time
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face
