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