Tip Of My Fingers
Wanda Jackson · Sings Country Songs [1965]
(Bill Anderson)
I reached out my arms and I touched you
With soft words I whispered your name
I had your love on the tip of my fingers
But that was as close as I came.
My eyes held 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 hand
But I let it slip right through my hand.
Somebody took you when I wasn't looking
I should've known right from the start
It's a long, long way from the tip of my finger
To the love hidden deep in your heart.
To the love hidden deep in your heart.
--- Instrumental ---
Somebody took you when I wasn't looking
I should've known right from the start
It's a long, long way from the tip of my finger
To the love hidden deep in your heart.
To the love hidden deep in your heart...
I reached out my arms and I touched you
With soft words I whispered your name
I had your love on the tip of my fingers
But that was as close as I came.
My eyes held 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 hand
But I let it slip right through my hand.
Somebody took you when I wasn't looking
I should've known right from the start
It's a long, long way from the tip of my finger
To the love hidden deep in your heart.
To the love hidden deep in your heart.
--- Instrumental ---
Somebody took you when I wasn't looking
I should've known right from the start
It's a long, long way from the tip of my finger
To the love hidden deep in your heart.
To the love hidden deep in your heart...
