Fingers Thumbs — текст песни (Erasure)

Dont know what youve got til its gone

A hint of the scent then its gone

Look at the state of you, youre all fingers & thumbs

So whos your latest flame

Drivin em wild in the fast lane

Wont say I told you so, but the boy has no shame



Once when my hands were full

We were double or quits then some

Nothin at all to show for a love so precious



Gone & blown it all, how can you say

"it doesnt matter much to me? "

A dumb mistake too much to pay

A shattered heart in loves debris



Gone & blow it all & then you say

"this cant be happening to me"

A dumb mistake too much to pay

A shattered heart in loves debris



Dont know what youve got til its gone

The thrill of the chase then its gone



Only the hurt to prove that it ever went on

And life is a wonderful thing

When youre humming the words to a love song

Do what you wanna do be who you want to be



When Im in your arms Im strong

Theres nowhere Id rather be

We shine for liberty, life & the pursuit of pleasure



Gone & blown it all, how can you say

"it doesnt matter much to me? "

A dumb mistake too much to pay

A shattered heart in loves debris



Gone & blown it all & then you say

"this isnt happening to me"

A dumb mistake too much to pay

A shattered heart in loves debris



And how the days have flown too few & fast

They said it wasnt meant to last

A dumb mistake too much to pay

A shattered heart in loves debris
