The Tip of My Fingers

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 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 tip 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 It's a long, long way from the tip of my fingers To the love hidden deep in your heart To the love hidden deep in your heart I had your love on the tip of my fingers But I let it slip right through my hands Yes, I let it slip right through my hands
