The first time ever I saw your face
              A  G#m           B  F#m
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
                 E   A        B       E
And the moon and stars were the gift you gave
       F#m  B             E        B

I felt the earth move in my arms
                   E   A    B      E
Like the trembling heart of a captive dove
         F#m   B        E       B
That was there at my command, my love
         F#m   G#m  A    E
That was there at my command

The first time ever I held you near
              A    G#m            B  F#m
And felt your heart beat close to mine
         E A  B       E
I felt a joy to fill the earth
           F#m  B          E       B
And last until  the end of time, my love
    F#m  G#m        A     E
And last till the end of time
              F#m  G#m        A     E
Our love will last till the end of time
