Pink Floyd - One Slip lyrics

A restless eye across a weary room<br>A glazed look and I was on the road to ruin<br>The music played and played as we whirled without end<br>No hint, no word her honour to defend<br><br>I will, I will she sighed to my request<br>And then she tossed her mane while my resolve was put to the test<br>Then drowned in desire, our souls on fire<br>I lead the way to the funeral pyre<br>And without a thought of the consequence<br>I gave in to my decadence<br><br>One slip, and down the hole we fall<br>It seems to take no time at all<br>A momentary lapse of reason<br>That binds a life for life<br>A small regret, you won't forget,<br>There'll be no sleep in here tonight<br><br>Was it love, or was it the idea of being in love? <br>Or was it the hand of fate, that seemed to fit just like a glove? <br>The moment slipped by and soon the seeds were sown<br>The year grew late and neither one wanted to remain alone<br><br>One slip, and down the hole we fall<br>It seems to take no time at all<br>A momentary lapse of reason<br>That binds a life for life<br>A small regret, you won't forget,<br>There'll be no sleep in here tonight<br>One slip ... one slip
