Fingers & Thumbs (Cold Summer's Day)

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

 

 

HI NRG

High energy, your love is lifting me.
Oh, yeah...
High energy, your love is lifting me,
lifting me high...high...

Oh, so high.

It was only last week when we first met,
and I was walking down the street.
You came up from behind me and I knew
that our eyes were gonna meet.

That's when I fell into your arms,
imagine my surprise.
I thought this only happened in fairy-tales,
love hit me right between the eyes.

Ooh
High energy, your love is lifting me.
Oh, yeah...
High energy, your love is lifting me,
lifting me high...high...

When you called me on the telephone,
you made my spirits rise.
I'm glad the others didn't last;
it's a blessing in disguise.

Every time you're touching me,
it gives me such a thrill.
When I look deep into your eyes,
my heart just can't keep still.

Oh, no, no, no!

High energy, your love is lifting me.
Ooh, yeah... High energy, your love is lifting me,
lifting me high...high...(oh so high)

All the gold that's in Fort Knox,
couldn't buy this happiness.
And with your love, I don't need money,
I don't need success.

I became a victim of a certain love attack.
It happened in the blink of an eye,
and there's no holding back.

No, no ,no ,no!

High energy, your love is lifting me. (oh, yeah)
High energy, your love is lifting me. (oh, yeah...high)
High energy, your love is lifting me. (oh, yeah)
High energy, your love is lifting me.
Lifting me high...
