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.
A F#
Hello my friend
D E
It's morning, time to wake now
A F#
In body in mind
D E
In twined will have to break now
A F#
But I need your flesh
D E
Your warmth to stay beside me
A F# D
Oh how I wish you could be
E
Deep inside me
A F#
Show me your eyes
D E
Your low most tender feelings
A F#
And I'll give you mine
D E
Be truthful and revealing
A
And it's you that I love
G
And it's true that I love
D E
And it's love not given lightly
A
But I knew that it's love
G
And it's you that I love
D E
And it's more than what it might be
C# --3----|
G# ----3--|
A F#
When we're alone
D E
I cannot always face you
A F#
Maybe my mood
D E
Will let these arms embrace you
A F#
But that doesn't mean
D E
My love's somewhat diminished
A F#
Give me the time
D E
To show our love's unfinished
(repeat chorus)
B D E
And every word I say is true
A F#
What can I say
D E
The words destroy all meanings
A F#
There's only cliches
D E
To get across this feeling
low C# -8\-- G# -1-1-1-1---|
E --0-0-0-0--|
A F#
This is a love song
D E
For John and Desha's mother
A F#
This isn't easy
D E
I might not write another
(repeat chorus x2)
