Fingertips
Tom Gregory Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Many years ago is when it all began
You found a home in the palm of my hands

The minute I held you to my chest I knew I found
The only one for me, such a beautiful sound

Sing for me, my darling
Won't you sing it for me?
Let my fingertips keep playing your sweet melody
Sing for me, my darling
Don't need no symphony
Let my fingertips keep playing your sweet melody

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)

You help me write a song when I've nothing to say
When I need you most, oh, you're not far away

The minute I held you to my chest I knew I found
The only one for me, such a beautiful sound

Sing for me, my darling
Won't you sing it for me?
Let my fingertips keep playing your sweet melody
Sing for me, my darling
Don't need no symphony
Let my fingertips keep playing your sweet melody

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Sing for me, my darling
Don't need no symphony
Let my fingertips keep playing your sweet melody

Sing for me, my darling
Won't you sing it for me? (Sing it for me)
Let my fingertips keep playing your sweet melody
Sing for me, my darling
Don't need no symphony
Let my fingertips keep playing your sweet melody

Il y a plusieurs années, c'est là que tout a commencé
Tu as trouvé une maison au creux de mes mains
Dès l'instant où je t'ai serrée contre moi, j'ai su que j'avais trouvé

La seule à mes yeux, un son si merveilleux

Chante pour moi, ma chérie, tu veux bien chanter pour moi
Laisse mes doigts continuer à jouer ta douce mélodie
Chante pour moi, ma chérie, je n'ai pas besoin de symphonie
Laisse mes doigts continuer à jouer ta douce mélodie

Woah...
Woah...

Tu m'aides à écrire une chanson quand je n'ai rien à dire
Mais quand j'ai le plus besoin de toi, oh, tu n'es pas loin

Dès l'instant où je t'ai serrée contre moi, j'ai su que j'avais trouvé
La seule à mes yeux, un son si merveilleux

Chante pour moi, ma chérie, tu veux bien chanter pour moi
Laisse mes doigts continuer à jouer ta douce mélodie
Chante pour moi, ma chérie, je n'ai pas besoin de symphonie
Laisse mes doigts continuer à jouer ta douce mélodie

Woah...
Woah...

Chante pour moi, ma chérie, tu veux bien chanter pour moi

Laisse mes doigts continuer à jouer ta douce mélodie

Chante pour moi, ma chérie, tu veux bien chanter pour moi
Laisse mes doigts continuer à jouer ta douce mélodie
Chante pour moi, ma chérie, je n'ai pas besoin de symphonie
Laisse mes doigts continuer à jouer ta douce mélodie

Woah...
Woah...

Most radio stations in Germany and Austria play 95% pop songs. Therefore they are always looking for new artists who produce classic pop songs with catchy melodies, no offensive lyrics and a certain amount of lightness to distract you from everyday life. Tom Gregory makes wonderful music that fits one to one into this pattern. Radio stations love him.
