Lyrics & Translation
English
I haven't been quite the same
So sure the story of my life would never change
In a bright eyed way
I rinsed out the soap in my eyes and wrote a song that I'm about to sing
'cause 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
Everyone should know that...
[Chorus]
One: You've got to take it kind of slowly
Two: You've got to hurry up and make your move
Three: You've got to tell her that she's pretty
Four: You've got to be the perfect gentleman
When you shake the wall, you've got to make it bend
Yeah you're got to show her that she's a balance beam
And I keep falling all around this fairy tale.
We took a walk in the rain
I suggested, she confessed that
there's a heart nearby to cast some shade.
Stay cool but I'm giddy like a school boy
You've got to handle with care this is not a toy
Gradually we touched
Though our clothes were wet
We sat and smiled
I never thought I'd smile so much
The first kiss always says the most
[Repeat Chorus]
Everyone should know that
[Repeat Chorus]
Oh this fairy tale oh this fairy tale
Some kind of fairy tale. Some kind of fairy tale.
Everyone should know that.

Balance Beam (traducción LyricVerse Team)
No he sido el mismo
Tan seguro de que la historia de mi vida nunca cambiaría
De una manera con ojos brillantes
Me enjuagué el jabón de los ojos y escribí una canción que estoy a punto de cantar
porque es sobre una chica que apenas conozco
Así que esta no es otra canción de amor
Solo una lista de cosas que debería saber
Todos deberían saber que...
[Estribillo]
Uno: Tienes que tomártelo con calma
Dos: Tienes que darte prisa y hacer tu movimiento
Tres: Tienes que decirle que es bonita
Cuatro: Tienes que ser el caballero perfecto
Cuando sacudes la pared, tienes que hacerla doblar
Sí, tienes que mostrarle que ella es una viga de equilibrio
Y sigo cayendo por todo este cuento de hadas.
Dimos un paseo bajo la lluvia
Yo sugerí, ella confesó que
hay un corazón cerca para proyectar algo de sombra.
Mantente fresco pero estoy mareado como un colegial
Tienes que manejarlo con cuidado, esto no es un juguete
Poco a poco nos tocamos
Aunque nuestra ropa estaba mojada
Nos sentamos y sonreímos
Nunca pensé que sonreiría tanto
El primer beso siempre dice lo más
[Repetir Estribillo]
Todos deberían saber que
[Repetir Estribillo]
Oh este cuento de hadas oh este cuento de hadas
Algún tipo de cuento de hadas. Algún tipo de cuento de hadas.
Todos deberían saber que.
