Lyrics Fingers & Thumbs (Cold Summer's Day) - Erasure

Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
The hint of the scent then it's gone
Look at the state of you
You're all fingers and thumbs
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
Once when my hands were full
We were double or quits then some
Nothin' at all to show for a love so precious
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
Gone and blown it all
And 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 and the pursuit of pleasure
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
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
Here I do walk
Fast amongst the flowers
On a cold summer's day
On a cold summer's day
Fast amongst the flowers
On a cold summer's day
I never said that it
I never said that it wouldn't work out
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
How the days have flown too few and fast
They said it wasn't meant to last
A dumb mistake too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris
How the days have flown
Said it wouldn't last
Much too much to ask
Your heart is made of glass
Love will save the day
See it blow away
Like a shattered heart
A shattered heart in love's debris
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
