Not Given Lightly

(album: Labour Of Love - 1993)

Hello my friend, it's morning, time to wake now
In body, in mind entwined will have to break now
But I need your flesh your warmth to stay beside me

Oh, how I wish you could be deep inside me
Show me your eyes your low most tender feeling
And I'll give you mine be truthful and revealing

And it's you that I love and it's true that I love
And it's love not given lightly but I knew that it's love
And it's you that I love and it's more than what it might be

When we're alone I cannot always face you
Maybe my mood won't let these arms embrace you
But that doesn't mean my love's somehow diminished
Give me the time to show our love's unfinished

And it's you that I love and it's true that I love
And it's love not given lightly but I know that it's love
And it's you that I love and it's more than what it might be

And every word I say is true

What can I say? The words destroy all meaning
There's only clinches to get across this feeling
This is a love song for john and Desha's mother
This isn't easy I might not write another

And it's you that I love and it's true that I love
And it's love not given lightly but I knew that it's love
And it's you that I love and it's more than what it might be
