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 - Pink Floyd
