Peggy Seeger: The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

GLI EXTRA DELLE CCG / AWS EXTRAS / LES EXTRAS DES CCG
Language: English




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 your heart beat close to mine
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
I thought that was there at my command, my love
I thought that was there at my command.

The first time ever I lay with you
I felt the earth move in my hand
I thought our joy would fill the earth
And last 'till the end of time, my love,
And last 'till the end of time.
