Five Little Fingers (1964)
I can home last night to a dark and lonely cottage
I took the wreath off the door and somehow I stumbled inside
I just can’t, I just can’t I said, live without her
Give me one reason to live, now that my darling has died

And then five little fingers touched my hand
Five little fingers too young to understand
And there was a softness in my little girl’s touch
It seemed to say daddy I need you so
And in five little seconds her five little fingers told me all that I wanted to know

I could tell her little eyes were full of questions
I tried to answer but all I could do was hold her tight
Forgive me, forgive me I said, for crying
But darling your daddy has got such a load on his shoulders tonight

And then five little fingers soft and dear
Touched me on the cheek and gently brushed away the tear
And I knew, in her own little way
My baby was saying daddy I love you so
It only took five little seconds her five little fingers told me all that I needed to know
(Five little fingers too young to understand)
