Polly Paulusma - Fingers and Thumbs lyrics

After I kissed you, a sweet darkness came down Fingers were search lights, leading the way down We talk in fingers and thumbs In an ancient braille of daily vacant overflow Fingers and thumbs can never lie We talk in fingers and thumbs With my hands out stretched I read your scars from head to toe No need to fake it anymore, thats what our tongues were made for Now, I see you feelingly and my fingers have eyes They search for you constantly in sorrows and smiles like this We talk in fingers and thumbs In an ancient braille of daily ache and overflow Fingers and thumbs can never lie We talk in fingers and thumbs With my hands out stretched I read your scars from head to toe No need to fake it anymore, thats what our tongues were made for Be my translator till theres no more to tell Till our skin turns to water and our bones turn to sea shell We talk in fingers and thumbs In an ancient braille of daily ache and overflow Fingers and thumbs can never lie We talk in fingers and thumbs With my hands out stretched I read your scars from head to toe No need to fake it anymore, thats what our tongues were made for
