Labour Of Love

Frente Labour Of Love歌詞
1.Testimony

Take
Me
Some
Where
Sunny
If you have a testimony
Ba da da da da
They give you easy blindness like a moneylender
And you may need bright lights for surgery
Ah-ahh
Ah-ahh
Tell me
I have a knife and time enough for everything
Yesterday covers your head
With that anaesthetic dread
Beautiful beautiful
Are you dangerous dangerous
Think i'm gonna die of lust
Think i'm gonna die of lust
Bite the dust
I will i will
And i can't count past won-derful to to-morrow
Tell me if i die and never know
Beautiful beautiful
Are you dangerous dangerous
Think i'm gonna die of lust
Bite the dust
Do do
I will i will
When e-ve-ry-thing's gone
I will be your champion
Breathless and perilous and full-of-you-yes


2.Not Given Lightly

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 cliches
To get across this feeling

This is a love song
For john and (?)'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


3.Paper, Bullets, Walls

Show me anyone
The patient is gone
It hasn't been breathing since it learnt right from wrong
Any innocent
Got discontent
This is why children sing lament
Are you dying yet?
Do you remember to forget?
Like i do, like i do
You got what you spent
One hundred percent of nothing's nothing
Make my life unsafe for living
Your diamonds are dirt
I'd much rather hurt than have all your addictions
If you want forever we'll f**k you baby
Is it paper or bullets in the walls
When it could be possible, beautiful, wonderful
Every little wing
Flaps for something
But no one knows one
I got governments! i got continents!
This is important baby, come on, get up
Aha!
Aha!
Aha!
Aha!
Aha!
Aha!


4.Risk

We are love
We are pushed and shoved by the butterflies
Give me your widest eyes
My mutiny
Say something stupid in my ear
Everyone can hear
We're not impressed with the formulas
We're gods with guns and guitars
Hugging the hummingbirds and the jaguars


5.Bizarre Love Triangle

Every time i think of you
I get a shot right through into a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine but it's a problem i find
Living a life that i can't leave behind
There's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of a fool won't set you free
But that's the way that it goes
And it's what nobody knows
And every day my confusion grows
Every time i see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You'll say the words that i can't say

I feel fine and i feel good
I feel like i never should
Whenever i get this way, i just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself
That if i hurt someone else
Then we'd never see just what we're meant to be
Every time i see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You'll say the words that i can't say


6.Oh Brilliance

Hesitation's dangerous
You move or you taste the dust
Life is coming for us
And it laughs at persistance
Flawless you are
In the distance
Oh brilliance shall we dance?
You love like you're under cameras
Photography will damn us
I think that you think that you're famous
If you're alive you just have to be fearless
Light me some serious steps
To burn in this meaninglessness
We twist, trip, turn
But our lives just repeat us
Is it all we can be just to be us?
And no one uncovers any
Original sincerity
We just dance with our history
Our could, would, should be
Here comes the silence to kill me
Yesterday i noticed i love you
I'm holding my life like a weapon above you
I have no more words
I've spent them
If we want to dance we will have to invent them
Always stepping the nothinglessness
Sometimes i dream we're imagining it
All that is real is the spin and the swing of steel


7.Labour Of Love

Oh am i fooling you?
Do you fall for it all
Or do you just see right through?
Are you as cool as you believe?
Are you playing hard?
Are you waiting just to quietly clock my card?
Are you waiting for a moment to leave?

I don't know how i bent what you said
To what i believe you meant
I don't know anything at all
I'm standing in the push and shove
And i'm just within the rescue
Of the labour of your love
I can't do anything but fall
A-fall, a-fall-fall-fall
Why do i feel like i can never find you?
Why do i feel like i'm the only survivor?
Why am i thinking of -
You and me and the labour of love?

One chance, one shot
That's all anybody ever got
Newborn still warm
Naked in the rush hour
Dancing in my gutter
And if you want to find me
Call me, i'll be far from
The cars and guitars and
Everybody
Why do i feel like i can never find you?
Why do i feel like i'm the only survivor?
Why am i thinking of -
You and me and the labour of love?

And i never knew before
But i feel like a child in a cold, cold war
So strong, so tough
Sitting in suburbia, waiting for the wind up
And i don't want to dance
I just want to jump from the prison of circumstance
Why am i thinking of -
You and me and the labour of love?
Why do i feel like i can never find you?
Why do i feel like i'm the only survivor?
Why am i thinking of -
You and me and the labour of love?
