Tips of My Fingers Lyrics

(I had you right on the tip of my fingers.)

- I reached out my arms - and I touched you
With soft words I whispered - your name
I had you right on the tips 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.
But I let it slip right through my hands.
^Somebody took you - when I wasn't looking
And I should have known - from the start
That it's a long, long way from the tips of my fingers
To the love hidden deep in your heart.
To the love hidden deep in your heart.

I had you right on the tips of my fingers
But I let you slip right through my hands.

> <Yes, I let you slip right through my - hands...>
