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