Fingers & Thumbs
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

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
