00:00I thought the sun rose in your eyes
00:30And the moon and the stars
00:37Were the gifts you gave
00:48To the dark and the endless skies, my love
00:59To the dark and the endless skies
01:10And the first time ever I kissed your mouth
01:25I felt the earth move in my hand
01:43Like the trembling heart
01:50Of a captive earth
01:58That was there
02:05That my command, my love
02:11It was there
02:18When you're sitting next to somebody
02:22It means something to you
02:24Even if they don't
02:26Just grab over something
02:28On this last verse
02:30The first time ever I lived with you

02:58And I knew our joy
03:05Would fill the earth
03:13And it would laugh
03:19Till the end of time, my love
