One Slip (2019 Remix) [Live]

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 lead 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 for life

You won't regret, you will never forget

There'll be no sleep in here tonight

One slip, and down the hole we fall

It seems to take no time at all (takes 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
