Lyrics

First time ever I saw your face
Thought the sun rose in your eyes
The moon and the stars were a gift you gave
To the dark and empty skies, my love
Talking away
I don't know what I'm to say
I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, okay
Take on me
(Take on me)
Take me on
(Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two
First time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move, move in my head
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face
Your face
