(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 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.
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.
But 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 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.   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.   But I let it slip right through my hands...
