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