Fingerprints
Love's Echo: Traces of Heartbreak in Patsy Cline's 'Fingerprints'
Lyrics
I feel the fingerprints
I sense the lasting impact
That you left on my heart
From the emotional marks you made
You played a game of love
You engaged in a love affair
And then you said we had to part
But eventually declared our separation
You left me all alone
You abandoned me completely
And as the teardrops start
As tears begin to fall
I feel the fingerprints
I sense the evidence
Of sorrow on my heart
Of sorrow imprinted on my heart
I know you didn't mean to be unkind
I understand your actions were unintentional
And hurt me so
You caused me pain
And you've made up your mind
You've made a decision
But I just thought you ought to know
I feel it's important for you to be aware
That when the day is through
During the day's conclusion
I think of only you
You occupy my thoughts
I sit alone and dream
I sit alone, imagining
And think of things we didn't do
Recalling things we didn't experience
Now I am all alone
Now I am left in solitude
And as the teardrops start
As tears begin to fall
I feel the fingerprints
I sense the lasting impact
That you left on my heart
From the emotional marks you made
And when the day is through
And when the day concludes
I think of only you
You remain in my thoughts
I sit alone and dream
I sit alone, dreaming
And think of things we didn't do
Recalling things we didn't experience
Now I am all alone
Now I am left in solitude
And as the teardrops start
As tears begin to fall
I feel the fingerprints
I sense the evidence
That you left on my heart
Of sorrow imprinted on my heart
