J-Tull A Hand of Thumbs Lyrics

My hand of thumbs is shaking;
I am so glad to meet you.
All tongue-tied and twisted,
My lips stuck like glue.

More than a lifetime to say, "How are you?"
More than an ocean to cross becalmed.
Less than a second to sink in silence.
Yours truly, I remain disarmed.

Saw you peeping from the corner;
Your eyes seemed to call hello.
I'm all too easily mistaken,
My feet unsteady as they go.

Was I a suave and confident trickster,
I would sweep you up and carry you down
To raspberry meadows under diamond skies,
And just mess around. Just mess around.
