作曲 : Andy Albert/Granger Smith/Jordan Schmidt
 I saw them sitting with their legs crossed in their backyard
 The kids had magic markers writing on balloons
 They let one go and watched it sail above the treetops
 So I went outside to see what they were doing
 They said daddy we've been sending notes to grandpa
 I just smiled, sat down and said, "Mind if I join y'all?"
 We wrote "We miss you and we love you"
 Told him things are great down here
 We spelled it out and sent it up
 And we watched it disappear
 Sometimes I guess you gotta see it to believe it
 'Cause right then I knew those blue sky prayers were getting through
 When we let go of those heaven bound balloons
 Before we knew it I swear we'd made at least a dozen
 One for everyone we wished were here but wasn't
 There was a red one for our labrador named Rio
 And a blue one too, miss Ruth who used to live just down the road
 We wrote "We miss you and we love you"
 Told 'em things are great down here
 We spelled it out and sent it up
 And we watched it disappear
 Sometimes I guess you gotta see it to believe it
 'Cause right then I knew those blue sky prayers were getting through
 When we let go of those heaven bound balloons
 Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
 Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
 Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
 Yeah I know that I'll be sitting up there someday
 Don't forget to send a couple of 'em my way
 Say miss you and we love you"
 Tell me things are great down here
 Just spell it out and send it up
 And we watch it disappear
 Sometimes I guess you gotta see it to believe it
 'Cause right then I knew those blue sky prayers were getting through
 When we let go of those heaven bound balloons
 Let go of those heaven bound balloons
 Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
