Tip Of My Fingers Lyrics by Eddy Arnold
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
(Bill Anderson)

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 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
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 tips of my fingers
But I let it slip right through my hands.
Yes, I let it slip right through my hands...
(Bill Anderson)      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 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   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 tips of my fingers   But I let it slip right through my hands.   Yes, I let it slip right through my hands...
