After I kissed you
A sweet darkness came down
Fingers were search lights
Leading the way down
We talk in fingers and thumbs
In an ancient braille of daily vacant overflow
Fingers and thumbs can never lie
We talk in fingers and thumbs
With my hands out stretched
I read your scars from head to toe
No need to fake it anymore
That's what our tongues were made for
Now I see you feelingly
And my fingers have eyes
They search for you constantly
In sorrows and smiles lines
We talk in fingers and thumbs
In an ancient braille of daily vacant overflow
Fingers and thumbs can never lie
We talk in fingers and thumbs
With my hands out stretched
I read your scars from head to toe
No need to fake it anymore
That's what our tongues were made for
Be my translator
'Till there’s no more to tell
'Till our skin turns to water
And our bones turn to sea shell
We talk in fingers and thumbs
In an ancient braille of daily vacant overflow
Fingers and thumbs can never lie
We talk in fingers and thumbs
With my hands out stretched
I read your scars from head to toe
No need to fake it anymore
That's what our tongues were made for
