One Slip

[01:10.02] A restless eye across a weary room

[01:17.99] A glazed look, and I was on the road to ruin

[01:26.22] The music played and played as we whirled without end

[01:34.71] No hint, no word her honour to defend

[01:42.96] “I will, I will” she sighed to my request

[01:50.65] And then she tossed her mane while my resolve was put to the test

[01:58.62] Then drowned in desire, our souls on fire

[02:02.88] I led the way to the funeral pyre

[02:07.13] And without a thought of the consequence

[02:10.84] I gave in to my decadence

[02:15.63] One slip, and down the hole we fall

[02:23.33] It seems to take no time at all

[02:31.56] A momentary lapse of reason

[02:35.54] That binds a life for life

[02:40.07] A small regret, you won’t forget

[02:43.51] There’ll be no sleep in here tonight

[03:41.68] Was it love or was it the idea of being in love?

[03:49.40] Or was it the hand of fate, that seemed to fit just like a glove?

[03:57.89] The moment slipped by and soon the seeds were sown

[04:05.86] The year grew late and neither one wanted to remain alone

[04:14.62] One slip, and down the hole we fall

[04:22.33] It seems to take no time at all

[04:30.56] A momentary lapse of reason

[04:34.55] That binds a life to a life

[04:39.06] One regret, you will never forget

[04:42.78] There’ll be no sleep in here tonight

[04:56.33] One slip...

[04:57.66] One slip...
