Sweet little words made for silence, not talk

Young heart for love, not heartache

Not to veil the sight of a cold world
[Chorus]
Em Bm D
Kiss, while your lips are still red
Am Em
While he’s still in silent rest
Bm C
While bosom is still untouched,
D Em
unveiled, hold another hand
Bm D
While the hand’s still without a tool
Am Em
Drown into eyes while they’re still blind
Bm C D
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn
