Tip Of My Fingers Lyrics - Dottie West

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
