The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face by Roberta Flack is featured in Yes/No, the tenth episode of Season Three. It is sung by Mercedes, Rachel, Santana and Tina.
As part of the Glee Club's assignment to find the perfect song for Will's proposal to Emma, Mercedes, Rachel, Santana and Tina perform a quartet rendition of the song. Right before the performance begins, the girls ask Will to think back to the first time he ever saw Emma's face. During the song, each of the girls has a flashback to an important moment they shared with their respective loves. Rachel has a flashback to when she and Finn locked eyes for the first time in the hallway, Santana and Brittany shared a sweet moment and smile at each other in the locker room, Tina remembers the time she and Mike shared a romantic picnic and Mercedes, although dating Shane, has a flashback to when she and Sam first saw each other near the football field.
It is obvious Mercedes felt guilty about seeing Sam because at the end of the song, she runs out of the auditorium emotionally and into the bathroom; Tina, Santana and Rachel confront her and talk to her about the situation with the two boys.

Lyrics
Rachel:
The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
Tina:
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
Tina with Mercedes, Rachel and Santana:
To the dark, (dark) and the end of the skies
My love
Mercedes:
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart
Of a captive bird
Tina with Mercedes, Rachel and Santana:
That was there at my command, my love
Santana:
And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
Mercedes:
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
Mercedes with Rachel, Santana and Tina:
And last, 'til the end of time, my love.
Rachel:
And the first time ever I saw
Tina with Rachel, Mercedes and Santana:
Your face
Mercedes with Santana, Rachel and Tina:
Your face
Santana with Rachel, Mercedes and Tina:
Your face
Rachel with Mercedes, Santana, and Tina:
Your face
Trivia
- The clothes Rachel wears during the flashback are the same clothes she wore in Pilot.
- Rachel's dress is twisted during part of the song and then becomes untwisted towards the end.
- It's believed by some that the flashbacks aren't necessarily the first time each person saw their love's face, but the first time they realized that they loved them.
