[Verse 1:]
I haven't been quite the same
So sure the story of my life would never change
And 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
[Chorus]
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 gentleman
When you shake the wall, you've got to make it bend
Yeah, you've got to show her that she's a balance beam
And I keep falling all around her fairy tale
[Verse 2:]
We took a walk in the rain
I suggested, she confessed that
There's a heart nearby to cast some shade
Stay cool, but I'm giddy like a schoolboy
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
[Chorus]
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 gentleman
When you shake the wall, you've got to make it bend
Yeah, you've got to show her that she's a balance beam
And I keep falling all around her fairy tale
Oh, this fairy tale, I wanna sing to you
And everyone should know that
[Chorus]
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 gentleman
When you shake the wall, you've got to make it bend
Yeah, you've got to show her that she's a balance beam
And I keep falling all around her fairy tale
Fairy tale, some kind of fairy tale
Some kind of fairy tale
And everyone should know that
