Blue October - Balance Beam lyrics

I haven't been quite the same
So sure the story of my
Life would never change
And in a bright eyed way
I rinsed out the soap in my eyes
And wrote a song that I'm about to sing
'Cause it's about a girl that
I hardly even know
So this is not another love song
Just a list of things that I should know
And everyone should know that

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 gentleman
When you shake the wall
You've got to make it bend
Yeah, you've got to show her
That she's a balance beam
And I keep falling all around her fairy tale

We took a walk in the rain
I suggested, she confessed that
There's a heart nearby to cast some shade
Stay cool, but I'm giddy like a schoolboy
You've got to handle with care
This is not a toy gradually, we touched
Although our clothes were wet
We sat and smiled
I never thought I'd smile so much
The first kiss always says the most

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 gentleman
When you shake the wall
You've got to make it bend
Yeah, you've got to show her
That she's a balance beam
And I keep falling all around her fairy tale
Oh, this fairy tale, I wanna sing to you

And everyone should know that

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 gentleman
When you shake the wall
You've got to make it bend
Yeah, you've got to show her
That she's a balance beam
And I keep falling all around her fairy tale
Fairy tale, some kind of fairy tale
Some kind of fairy tale
And everyone should know that
