To the night and the empty skies
And felt your heart beat close to mine
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
That was there at my command my love
And would last 'till the end of time my love
And would last 'till the end of time
The first time ever I lay with you
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
That was there at my command
To the night and the empty skies my love
I felt the earth turn in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
I thought our joy would fill the earth
To the night and the empty skies my love
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
