Blue October - Balance Beam Lyrics

Blue October
Consent to Treatment
Balance Beam
I haven't been quite the same
So sure the story of my life would never change
Then 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 gotta take it kinda slowly
Two: You gotta hurry up and make your move
Three: You gotta tell her that she's pretty
Four: You gotta be the perfect gentleman
And shake her world you gotta make it bend yea
You gotta show her that
she's the balance beam
and I keep fallin all around her fairy tale

We took a walk in the rain
I suggested she confess there's a heart nearby
To cast that shame
Stay cool but I'm giddy like a school boy
You gotta handle with care
This is not a toy
And gradually we touch
Although our clothes were wet
We suddenly smiled
I never thought I'd smiled so much
The first kiss always says the most

One: You gotta take it kinda slowly
Two: You gotta hurry up and make your move
Three: You gotta tell her that she's pretty
Four: You gotta be the perfect gentleman
And shake her world you gotta make it bend yea
You gotta show her that
she's the balance beam
and I keep fallin all around her fairy tale

(I said a oh ho ha, her fairy tale
ha, I wanna sing to you)

And everyone should know that...

One: You gotta take it kinda slowly
Two: You gotta hurry up and make your move
Three: You gotta tell her that she's pretty
Four: You gotta be the perfect gentleman
And shake her world you gotta make it bend yea
You gotta show her that
she's the balance beam
and I keep fallin all around her fairy tale
(All around, around,All around, around, all around, all around, around, all around, my, my fairy tale)

Some kind of fairy tale
Some kind of fairy tale
And everyone should know that
