The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face


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 endless skies, my love
To the dark and the endless skies

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
And felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command

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 till the end of time my love
and It would last till the end of time my love

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

This is a song not written by you. But Rather Roberta Flack from back in the day. It would be nice if people in the Poem sub forum would quote who they're getting their so called "poems" from. The last chick stole her's from the bible and posed it as if she wrote it as well... Not cool.

I like that Roberta Flack song. It is one of those songs that if you are in love and hear it it makes you misty eyed.
