When first I looked into your eyes
each breath became a thousand sighs.
My heart drummed out a thunder beat;
I glowed with joy from head to feet.
The hand of heaven touched my soul,
as the bell of destiny began to toll.
The tide of love began to rise,
when first I looked into your eyes.
When first I looked into your eyes
the world was filled with summer skies.
My sodden clouds of cold and grey
glowed with gold, then wisped away.
A brilliant rainbow arched across,
as waves of love began to toss.
The air was filled with lovebird cries,
when first I looked into your eyes.
When first I looked into your eyes
all time and space were paralysed.
Each second became eternity;
between us lay infinity.
And in that instant, I was shown
a universe I had never known.
I dwell there still, in Paradise,
when e're I look into your eyes.
