The Tip Of My Fingers by Dottie West Lyrics
I reached out my arms and I touched you
With soft words
I whispered your name
I held you right on the tip of my fingers
Oh, but that was as close as I came
My eyes had a vision of sweet lips
Yielding beneath my command
I had your love on the tips of my fingers
But I let it slip right through my hands
Yes, I let it slip right through my hands
Somebody took you when I wasn't looking
And I should have known from the start
Well, it's a long long way from the tip of my fingers
To the love that's hidden
Deep in your heart to the love
Hidden deep in your heart
Yes, somebody took you...
With soft words
I whispered your name
I held you right on the tip of my fingers
Oh, but that was as close as I came
My eyes had a vision of sweet lips
Yielding beneath my command
I had your love on the tips of my fingers
But I let it slip right through my hands
Yes, I let it slip right through my hands
Somebody took you when I wasn't looking
And I should have known from the start
Well, it's a long long way from the tip of my fingers
To the love that's hidden
Deep in your heart to the love
Hidden deep in your heart
Yes, somebody took you...
