And the moon and the s[G]tars were the g[D]ifts you gave To the n[C]ight and the empty s[D]ky, my love. To the n[C]ight and the empty s[D]ky. The first time ever I kissed your mouth, I felt the earth move in my hand, Like the trembling heart of a captive bird, That was there at my command, my love. That was there at my command. The first time ever I held you near, I felt the heart beat close to mine. I thought our joy would fill the world, And would last 'till the end of time, my love. And would last 'till the end of time. # # Submitted to the ftp.nevada.edu:/pub/guitar archives # by Steve Putz # 7 September 1992 www.TAB6.com
