Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]The first time eve[G]r I saw[A]
[D]your face
I thought the sun rose in [F#m]your
[D]eye[G]s[A]
And the moon [D]and the stars[Em]
[A]were the gifts you gav[D]e
To the [C]dark and [Dsus4]the endless skies,
[G]my [A]lov[D]e
[C]To the dark [A]and the endless skies
[D]

[Verse 2]
And the first time [G]ever [A]I
kissed [D]your mouth
I felt the earth move in [F#m]my hand[G][A]
Like the [D]trembling [Em]heart [A]of a captive bird
[D]That was[C] there at [Dsus4]my comman[C]d,
[G]my [A]love[D]
[C]That was there at [A]my
command, my [D]love
And the first time [G]ever [A]I

[Verse 3]
lay [D]with you
I felt your heart so close [F#m]to mine
[G]And[A] I knew our[D] joy wou[Em]ld
[A]fill the[D] earth
[C]And last 'til the end of [Dsus4]time
[G]my [A]love[D]
[C]And it would last [A]'til the end of time
The first time [D]ever I saw your face Your face,

[Verse 4]
your face, your face
