Balance Beam Lyrics
So sure the story of my life would never change.
But in a bright-eyed way, I rinsed out the soap in my eyes,
And wrote a song that I'm about to sing.
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.
Two: you gotta hurry up and make your move
Three: You gotta tell her that she's pretty.
You shake her wall, you gotta make it bend.
Yeah, you gotta show her that,
She's the balance beam,
And I keep falling all around her fairytale.
I suggested, she confess:
"There's a heart nearby to cast that shame."
But I'm giddy like a school boy.
You gotta handle with care;
This is not a toy.
Although our clothes were wet, we sat and smiled.
I never thought I'd smile so much
The first kiss always says the most.
One: You gotta take it kinda slowly
Two: you gotta hurry up and make your move
Three: You gotta tell her that she's pretty.
You shake her wall, you gotta make it bend.
Yeah, you gotta show her that,
She's the balance beam,
And I keep falling all around her fairytale.
Two: you gotta hurry up and make your move
Three: You gotta tell her that she's pretty.
You shake her wall, you gotta make it bend.
Yeah, you gotta show her that,
She's the balance beam,
And I keep falling all around her fairytale.
Some kind of fairytale.
A fairytale.

Actually.. The correct title of this song was "Fairy tale" The other version is called "Balance Beam" Just letting you know :-)
You are definitely wrong on that. It is definitely called "Balance Beam" and not "Fairy Tale". The other version is just the same song sung live which is something a lot of artists do. They sing the live version a little bit different. These lyrics are for the "Balance Beam" in the CD "Consent to Treatment". The live version was recorded during his live performance of "Argue With a Tree". That was made into a DVD which he sang a bunch of different songs. That includes "Sound of Pulling Heaven Down" which he...

That includes "Sound of Pulling Heaven Down" which he only sang a small portion. That doesn't mean that it should be a whole new song with a whole new name. So both are called "Balance Beam". The other one is just live. Just letting you know.
These aren't the lyrics from Consent To Treatment...

I love this song. It's so catchy.

i don't think those lyrics are i right! i coulda sworn that 3 is "ya gotta tell her that she's pretty"...but whatever...its a cute song anyway.

There are two different versions of the song. The one listed above, and the one with the lyrics you are thinking of.

oh! okay now that makes more sense. thanks!

i saw these guys on friday at Fitzgeralds. They're awesome. This is one of my favorite songs. Ya, they played the other version, which i think is better, but it's all good

i might see blue october at the pre edge fest saturday. right now, calling you is the only song that gets any airplay, but i've heard a lot more. this song is actually kinda good.

This is such a cute song. I love it. And the tune and rhythem is great. Makes me wanna dance.

I thought it was "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"
their 2 versions to it and in the other one he sais what you wrote
