Balance Beam Lyrics

Blue October

[This song is originally called Fairy tale]

I haven't been quite the same
So sure the story of my life would never change
Then in a bright eyed way
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

[Chorus]
One: You've got to take it kind of slowly
Two: You've got to hurry up and make your move
Three: you gotta tell her that she's pretty
Four: You've got to be the perfect gentleman
When you shake the walls, you've got to make 'em bend
Ya gotta show her that she's the balance beam
And i keep falling all around her fairy tale

We took a walk in the rain
I suggested she confessed
There's a heart near by 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
Although our clothes were wet
We sat and smiled
I never thought I'd smile so much
The first kiss always says the most

[Repeat Chorus]
Everyone should know that
[Repeat Chorus]

OO this fairy tale OO this fairy tale
Some kind of fairy tale. Some kind of fairy tale.

Everyone should know that.
