Frente! - "Not Given Lightly" (from the EP "Labour Of Love")
I think this is a cover tune, but it is so lovely they could
have written it themselves. It is very beautiful.
C# A#
Hello my friend
F# G#
It's morning, time to wake now
C# A#
In body in mind
F# G#
In twined will have to break now
C# A#
But I need your flesh
F# G#
Your warmth to stay beside me
C# A# F#
Oh how I wish you could be
G#
Deep inside me
C# A#
Show me your eyes
F# G#
Your low most tender feelings
C# A#
And I'll give you mine
F# G#
Be truthful and revealing
C#
And it's you that I love
Cb
And it's true that I love
F# G#
And it's love not given lightly
C#
But I knew that it's love
Cb
And it's you that I love
F# G#
And it's more than what it might be

C# A#
When we're alone
F# G#
I cannot always face you
C# A#
Maybe my mood
F# G#
Will let these arms embrace you
C# A#
But that doesn't mean
F# G#
My love's somewhat diminished
C# A#
Give me the time
F# G#
To show our love's unfinished
(repeat chorus)
D# F# G#
And every word I say is true
C# A#
What can I say
F# G#
The words destroy all meanings
C# A#
There's only cliches
F# G#
To get across this feeling

C# A#
This is a love song
F# G#
For John and Desha's mother
C# A#
This isn't easy
F# G#
I might not write another
(repeat chorus x2)
