Gm Dm F Cm Gm Dm D# F


Gm                          D#
sweet little words make the silence
       F                         D#   F
not so young, heartfelt love not heartache
Gm                    A#
dark hair fall, catch in the wind
                  D#         F    Gm
light the way the sight of a cold world


Gm          Dm                  F
kiss, while your lips are still red
      Cm                   Gm
while he’s still in silent rest
      Dm               D#
while bosom is still untouched
  F                 Gm
unveiled on another hair
          Dm                     F
while the hand’s still without a tool
           Cm                       Gm
drown into eyes while they’re still blind
Dm                         D#                  F
love while the night still hides the withering dawn


Gm F D# F Gm


Gm                      D#
first day of love never comes back
                F                 D#     F
compassion, its power’s never are wasted wrong
Gm              A#
the violin, the poet’s hand
              D#               F          Gm
every thawing heart plays your theme with care


Gm          Dm                  F
kiss, while your lips are still red
      Cm                   Gm
while he’s still in silent rest
      Dm               D#
while bosom is still untouched
  F                 Gm
unveiled on another hair
          Dm                     F
while the hand’s still without a tool
           Cm                       Gm
drown into eyes while they’re still blind
Dm                         D#                  F
love while the night still hides the withering dawn
