One Slip Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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
One regret, you will never forget
There’ll be no sleep in here tonight

[Outro]
One slip… one slip…
