Erasure
Fingers & Thumbs (Cold Summer’s Day) (Live) [Oxford, Apollo, UK - 1996/11/11]
[Verse 1]
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 and thumbs
[Verse 2]
So who's your latest flame
Driving'em wild in the fast lane
I won't say I told you so, but the boy has no shame (no shame)
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Once when my hands were full
We were double or quits then some
Nothin' at all to show for a love so precious
[Chorus 1]
Gone and 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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Pre-Chorus 2]
When I'm in your arms I'm strong
There's nowhere I'd rather be
We shine for liberty, life and the pursuit of pleasure
[Chorus 1]
Gone and 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
[Chorus 2]
Gone and blown it all and then you say
This isn't happening to me
A dumb mistake too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris
[Interlude]
Hold on
You're going to stay
Gone...
Gone...
How can you say?
[Chorus 1]
Gone and 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
[Chorus 1]
Gone and 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
