Fingers Crossed Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Introduced me to your family
Watched my favorite shows on your TV
Made me breakfast in the mornin'
When you got home from work
[Verse 2]
Makin' plans to travel 'round the world
Said we'd always put each other first
Old love songs we used to play to
Funny, now I hate you
[Chorus]
Now, I
Remember when you'd call me late at night
I gave you my hours and advice just tryna fix you
And all your daddy issues
But now, I don't even miss you anymore
So, I
I want all the tears back that I cried
All the hours spent givin' advice on how to write your songs
All you did was prove me wrong
When you said you loved me
Well, you must've had your fingers crossed
[Verse 3]
Shoulda paid attention to my friends
Tellin' me how bad it's gonna end
Always givin' their opinions
Now I wish I would have listened
[Pre-Chorus]
I could say I'm sorry, but I'm not
You don't deserve the one thing that you lost
[Chorus]
Now, I
Remember when you'd call me late at night
And I gave you my hours and advice just tryna fix you
And all your daddy issues
But now, I don't even miss you anymore
So, I
I want all the tears back that I cried
All the hours spent givin' advice on how to write your songs
All you did was prove me wrong
When you said you loved me
Well, you must've had your fingers crossed
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Your fingers crossed
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Your fingers crossed
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Oh, when you said you loved me
Well, you must've had your fingers crossed
[Outro]
Oh, I
I want all the tears back that I cried
All the hours spent giving advice on how to write your songs
All you did was prove me wrong
Wish you said you loved me
When you didn't have your fingers crossed
Fingers Crossed - English Translation
[Verso 1]
Me presentaste a tu familia
Vi mis programas favoritos en tu televisor
Me preparaste el desayuno por la mañana
Cuando llegabas del trabajo
[Verso 2]
Haciendo planes para viajar por todo el mundo
Dijiste que siempre nos pondríamos el uno al otro primero
Viejas canciones de amor que solíamos tocar
Qué gracioso, ahora te odio
[Estribillo]
Ahora, yo
Recuerdo cuando me llamabas tarde en la noche
Te di mis horas y consejos solo intentando arreglarte
Y todos tus problemas con tu papá
Pero ahora, ya ni siquiera te extraño
Así que, yo
Quiero todas las lágrimas que lloré de vuelta
Todas las horas pasadas dando consejos sobre cómo escribir tus canciones
Lo único que hiciste fue probarme que estaba equivocada
Cuando dijiste que me amabas
Bueno, debiste haber tenido los dedos cruzados
[Verso 3]
Debí haber prestado atención a mis amigos
Que me decían lo mal que iba a terminar
Siempre dando sus opiniones
Ahora desearía haber escuchado
[Pre-Estribillo]
Podría decir que lo siento, pero no es así
No mereces la única cosa que perdiste
[Estribillo]
Ahora, yo
Recuerdo cuando me llamabas tarde en la noche
Y te di mis horas y consejos solo intentando arreglarte
Y todos tus problemas con tu papá
Pero ahora, ya ni siquiera te extraño
Así que, yo
Quiero todas las lágrimas que lloré de vuelta
Todas las horas pasadas dando consejos sobre cómo escribir tus canciones
Lo único que hiciste fue probarme que estaba equivocada
Cuando dijiste que me amabas
Bueno, debiste haber tenido los dedos cruzados
[Post-Estribillo]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Tus dedos cruzados
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Tus dedos cruzados
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Oh, cuando dijiste que me amabas
Bueno, debiste haber tenido los dedos cruzados
[Outro]
Oh, yo
Quiero todas las lágrimas que lloré de vuelta
Todas las horas pasadas dando consejos sobre cómo escribir tus canciones
Lo único que hiciste fue probarme que estaba equivocada
Desearía que hubieras dicho que me amabas
Cuando no tenías los dedos cruzados
Meaning of Fingers Crossed
Fingers Crossed is a powerful heartbreak anthem about realizing that a past relationship was built on lies and empty promises. Lauren Spencer-Smith reflects on all the love, time, and emotional energy she poured into someone who never truly loved her back. The phrase 'fingers crossed' symbolizes a promise made insincerely — like a child crossing their fingers behind their back while making a promise they don't intend to keep. In the song, she accuses her ex of saying 'I love you' while secretly not meaning it. The verses walk through bittersweet memories — meeting the family, watching shows together, making breakfast, dreaming of traveling the world — which now feel hollow and painful. The chorus is the emotional core: she wants her tears, her hours, and her advice back because they were wasted on someone who only proved her wrong. Verse 3 shows regret for not listening to friends who warned her. The pre-chorus is a moment of empowerment — she refuses to apologize because he doesn't deserve the love he lost. The outro adds a final, heartbreaking twist: she wishes he had said 'I love you' when he wasn't crossing his fingers — meaning she wishes even a single moment of his love had been real. Overall, the song is about betrayal, self-worth, healing, and finally letting go of someone who never deserved you.
