Journey South - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face lyrics

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 endless skies, my love

The first time ever I kissed your mouth

I felt the earth move in my hands

Like a trembling heart of a captive bird

That was there at my command, my love

And I knew our joy would fill the earth

And last till the end of time my love

The first time ever I saw your face, your face,

Your face, your face, saw your face
