Balance Beam - Blue October

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…

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 pretty

She’s so pretty

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

Every man should know that

OO this fairy tale OO this fairy tale

Some kind of fairy tale.

Some kind of fairy tale.

Evey man should know that.
