pink floyd - one slip (live at nassau coliseum 1988) 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…
