One Slip Lyrics

edit | print

A restless eye across a weary room
a glazed look and I was on the road to ruin
the music played and played as we whirled without end
no hint, no word her honour to defend

I will, I will, she sighed to my request
and then she tossed her mane while my resolve was put
to the test
then drowned in desire, our souls on fire
I led the way to the funeral pyre
and without a thought of the consequence
I gave in to my decadence

one slip, and down the hole we fall
it seems to take no time at all
a momentary lapse of reason
that binds a life for life
a small regret, you won't forget
there'll be no sleep in here tonight

was it love, or was it the idea of being in love?
or was it the hand of fate, that seemed to fit just
like a glove?
the moment slipped by and soon the seeds were sown
the year grew late and neither one wanted to remain
alone

one slip, and down the hole we fall
it seems to take no time at all
a momentary lapse of reason
that binds a life to a life
the one regret, you will never forget
there'll be no sleep in here tonight
one slip...one slip...

A restless eye across a weary room  
a glazed look and I was on the road to ruin  
the music played and played as we whirled without end  
no hint, no word her honour to defend  
  
I will, I will, she sighed to my request  
and then she tossed her mane while my resolve was put  
to the test  
then drowned in desire, our souls on fire  
I led the way to the funeral pyre  
and without a thought of the consequence  
I gave in to my decadence  
  
one slip, and down the hole we fall  
it seems to take no time at all  
a momentary lapse of reason  
that binds a life for life  
a small regret, you won't forget  
there'll be no sleep in here tonight  
  
was it love, or was it the idea of being in love?  
or was it the hand of fate, that seemed to fit just  
like a glove?  
the moment slipped by and soon the seeds were sown  
the year grew late and neither one wanted to remain  
alone  
  
one slip, and down the hole we fall  
it seems to take no time at all  
a momentary lapse of reason  
that binds a life to a life  
the one regret, you will never forget  
there'll be no sleep in here tonight  
one slip...one slip...
