Emilíana Torrini
Fingertips
[Verse 1]
Before I can open
My all too eager eyes
Everything changes
From the oceans to the skies

[Verse 2]
Perpetual motion
Set a place by me
Everything's breathing
My hair an olive tree

[Chorus]
Yet my fingertips
Have a special sound
Yet my fingertips
They go around and round

[Verse 3]
This comical wisdom
Creeps into my brain
A wave of my nerve and
Oh, so free of pain

[Chorus]
Yet my fingertips
Have a special sound
Yet my fingertips
They go around and round
[Hook]
Pa-pa-pa-ra-raaa-a
Pa-pa-pa-ra-raaa-a

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 4]
Electrical current
Hallowed be thy name
Lift my emotions
And banish all my shame

[Chorus]
Yet my fingertips
Have a special sound
Yet my fingertips
Smell of sodden ground

[Verse 1]
Before I can open
My all too eager eyes (all too eager eyes)
Everything changes
From the oceans to the skies

[Chorus]
Yet my fingertips
Have a special sound
Yet my fingertips
They go round and round
[Hook]
Pa-pa-pa-ra-raaa-a
Pa-pa-pa-ra-raaa-a
