Lyrics

[00:12.97] How goes it now I'm round your wrist
[00:18.98] Who knows just how much higher and
[00:25.17] if I could go but a string ties me to you
[00:31.45] You're like a child I'm like a balloon
[00:42.39] I never said I'm not quiet or cold
[00:48.40] Or full of myself and hard to hold onto
[00:54.83] Or floating away at the sound of some warning bell
[01:02.53] Like I just might pop if you love me too well
[01:10.64] Up and away the way most balloons go
[01:16.93] Riding around in the sky on my own it'd never do
[01:22.62] Better to be on the ground I believe
[01:29.58] If you are the one there with me
[01:35.30] You are an angel and I'm a cartoon
[01:51.90] A colored-in outline of somebody who
[01:57.33] Wants to come down and stay tied right to you
[02:05.07] You are a fine boy I'm just a balloon
[02:14.35] Or floating away at the sound of some warning bell
[02:18.01] Like I just might pop if you love me too well
[02:32.68] Riding around in the sky on my own it'd never do
[02:42.27] If you are the one there with me
[02:45.07] You are an angel and I'm a cartoon
