G			    C
You're lovely to me yes you are
G		D
We've traveled together
      C
We've traveled so far
     G		  D
Your tongue it is wise
	    C			G  D	Dsus4 D Dsus4
And there's love in your eyes deep and blue

G			    C
You're lovely to me yes you are
 G	  D		C
And venus ascending is surely your star
     G		  D
I've seen how you shine
      C				D   Dsus4 D Dsus4
But I can't make you mine it is true

	 Em			C
You're a midsummer mountain in bloom
G			Am
Heather and linden, the fruit of your womb
	C		     Bm
There's honey and sap in the couch of your lap
D      Dsus4 D Dsus4
Lady day

	Em		      C
There's nothing you would not provide
    G			    Am
When all is despair you are there at my side
      C			     Bm
It is you that is near it is you that gives ear
       D    Dsus4 D Dsus4
when I pray

You're lovely to me yes you are
You've been out on the road with a craving for tar
You know what you need yes you're canny in deed
And in name

You're lovely to me yes you are
And I'll see you tonight in a local bar
We'll be wed before dawn and by morning
We're one and the same

The old ones they knew you my love
They set you to reason and sullied a dove
But how could they try you or demystify you with words

You're a city that's pulling me still
You keep me from sleeping and strengthen my will
The gates they are strong but they open for song I
have heard

You're lovely to me yes you are
You're the beautiful one that time cannot mar
Your lost in the eyes of my love as she cries all for
joy

You're lovely to me yes you are
You're the elusive chord on my old guitar
You're hidden 'neath veils that our love making fails
to destroy

There's all I desire in your voice
I fear I am bold but you leave me no choice
You know that to ask me to turn from my task would be
vain

You're a rose that for no man will yield
You have many names and all of them sealed
Your empire is vast from the first to the last you
remain

You're lovely to me yes you are
It's war all the time but you bare no scar
You glitter like sand as it runs through my hands to
the sea

You're lovely to me yes you are
You're my drunken companion it's right that you are
Your love takes me higher your love is the fire in me
