Buxton - Fingertips lyrics

I didn't have the love to give I broke it with my fingertips And I broke every promise that I made Some in love and some in vain And I jumped the fence once the cop cars came And in the dark you called my name You said "Robert E., I love you still." And, "Do you feel the way i feel?" But you were down and you were out And you were so torn up inside That you begged me not to look you in the eye We split like a serpent's tongue When mama cried, "It's time to come home!" And the gasoline spilled from your lips As you lit up your cigarette And you were down and you were out And you were so torn up inside That you begged me not to look you in the eye
