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 tips of my fingers

But i let it slip right through my hands

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 tips of my fingers

To the love hidden deep in your heart
