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 tip 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.

It's a long, long way from the tip of my fingers To the love hidden deep in your heart...
