Fingers And Thumbs Lyrics - Erasure

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

A hint of the scent then it's gone 

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

So who's your latest flame 

Drivin' em wild in the fast lane 

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 

Nothin' 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 & blow it all & 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 & the pursuit of pleasure 

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 

Photos 

Gone & blown it all & then you say 

This isn't happening to me 

A dumb mistake too much to pay 

A shattered heart in love's debris 

And 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
