Since the first star split the black Split the silence, too Since the first dawn woke this Earth Found it clothed in blue Since the first bird song was sung As through the air it flew It's been you, it's always been you It's always been you Since the first thrust of the sea Lie spent upon the shore Since the first breath filled these lungs Left them wanting more Since the first your lips met mine Soft as morning dew It's been you, it's always been you It's always been you Led me out of the darkness Fed my heart on ancient land Kept me close, kept me honest I love you, oh how I love you Oh how I love you Oh how I love you Since the first star split the black The very light itself was moved Since the first word moved the air One syllable and true Since the first your eyes found mine It was all at once I knew It's been you, it's always been you It's always been you It's always been you It's always been you
