Fingertips Lyrics

I got to the party and there was nobody I knew

I walked over freezing my hands were so cold they'd turned blue

I blurred out their faces and walked back towards Waterloo

I look up at streetlights and that's when I think to call you

There's only fingertips

There's only fingertips

There's only fingertips

There's only fingertips

Between me and you

I'm searching for courage, I'm searching through all this dismay

As I count my options I wonder if you'll let me stay

But I can't seem desperate but that's always hard to downplay

Will this really happen will I settle for this cliche

There's only fingertips

There's only fingertips

There's only fingertips

There's only fingertips

Between me and you

As I board the train I think maybe it's right I go home

I'll sit down with Ernest and drink an old fashioned alone

But that doesn't feel right seems like my courage has grown

I call it rings twice and that's when you answer the phone
