Tip Of My Fingers Lyrics by Dottie West
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
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.
Yes, I let it slip right through my hands

Somebody took you when I wasn't looking
And I should have known from the start
Well, it's a long, long way from the tip of my fingers
To the love that's hidden deep in your heart
To the love hidden deep in your heart.

Yes, somebody took you when I wasn't looking
And I should have known from the start
Well, it's a long, long way from the tip of my fingers
To the love that's hidden deep in your heart.

To the love hidden deep in your heart...
