Blue October - Balance Beam

I haven't been quite the same So sure the story of my life would never change In a bright eyed way Rinsed out the soap in my eyes and wrote a song that I'm about to sing It's about a girl That I hardly even know It's not another love song Just a list of things that I should know every man should know that... [Chorus] One: You've got to take it kind of slowly Two: You've got to hurry up and make your move Three: You've got to tell her that she's pretty Four: You've got to be the perfect gentelman When you shake the walls, you've got to make 'em bend Yeah you're got to show her thats she's... You're the balance beam And I keep falling all around this fairy tale. We took a walk in the rain My suggestion, she requested The park nearby to cast the shade Stay cool but I'm giddy like a school boy You've got to handle with care this is not a toy Gradually we touched Though our clothes were wet We sat and smiled I never thought I'd smile so much The first kiss always says the most [Chorus] One: You've got to take it kind of slowly Two: You've got to hurry up and make your move Three: You've got to tell her that she's pretty Four: You've got to be the perfect gentelman When you shake the walls, you've got to make 'em bend Yeah you're got to show her thats she's... You're the balance beam And I keep falling all around this fairy tale Every man should know that [Chorus] One: You've got to take it kind of slowly Two: You've got to hurry up and make your move Three: You've got to tell her that she's pretty Four: You've got to be the perfect gentelman When you shake the walls, you've got to make 'em bend Yeah you're got to show her thats she's... You're the balance beam And I keep falling all around this fairy tale OO this fairy tale OO this fairy tale Some kind of fairy tale. Some kind of fairy tale. Evey man should know that.
