Erasure Fingers And Thumbs Lyrics

Fingers And Thumbs Lyrics

Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone

A hint of the scents then it's gone

Look at the state of you, you're all fingers & thumbs

So who's your latest flame

Driving 'em wild in the fast lane

I won't say I told you so, but the boy has no shame



Once when my hands were full

We were double or quits then some

Nothing at all to show for a love so precious



Gone & blown it all, how can you say

"IT DOESN'T MATTER MUCH TO ME"

A dumb mistake, too much to pay

A shattered heart in love's debris



Gone & blown it all, and then you say

"THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING TO ME"

A dumb mistake, too much to pay

A shattered heart in love's debris



Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone

The thrill of the chase, then it's gone

Only the hurt to prove that it ever went on

And life is a wonderful thing

When you're humming the words to a love song

Do what you wanna do, be who you want to be



     When I'm in your arms I'm strong

     There's nowhere I'd rather be

     We shine for liberty, life,

     And the pursuit of pleasure



* Repeat  Gone & blown it all, and then you say

          "THIS ISN'T HAPPENING TO ME"

          A dumb mistake, too much to pay

          A shattered heart in love's debris



...here I do walk, fret amongst the flowers

...on a cold summer's day, on a cold summer's day

...fret amongst the flowers

...I never said that, I never said that... the word that counts



* Repeat  How the days have flown too few & fast

          They said it wasn't meant to last

          A dumb mistake, too much to pay

          A shattered heart in love's debris



...how the days have gone  ...said it wouldn't last

...was too much to ask     ...hearts made of glass

...the love that saved the day    ...see it go away

...like a shattered heart



A shattered heart in love's debris
