such a pretty thing
 a white balloon on a string
 it floats above my head
 filled with stuff I should have said
 need to tell you how I feel
 say it out loud and make it real
 could've told you what I knew
 that I'm just so amazed by you
 
 thought balloon, above my head
 thought balloon, the things I should have said
 my thought balloon, I'll set it free
 my thought balloon, and lead you here to me
 
 you're the coolest boy I know
 but it's so hard to just say so
 don't mean to keep it all inside
 sometimes I get so tongue-tied
 thoughts can weigh me down
 my balloon dips closer to the ground
 I'm hoping that you catch my drift
 give my balloon a little lift
 
 I've been quiet for too long
 and I'm gonna take the dare
 find a way to let you know
 (la la-la la) time to let my secrets go
 (la la-la la) I'll pull the words out of thin air
 
 thought balloon, above my head
 thought balloon, the things I should have said
 my thought balloon, I'll set it free
 my thought balloon, and lead you here to me
 and finally I'll have my say and then my thought balloon can float away
