I put my heart in a red balloon But I let it go to soon Let it go on the boulevard Where wicked winds blow so hard Maybe had I looked up I would have seen that The sky is full of red balloons Red balloons are full of broken hearts Broken hearts are floating by a chance Will they burst or drift Into arms Will they burst or drift Into arms I put my voice in a red balloon For you it sang too many tunes Haunted by those melodies I let it go with the breeze Maybe had I looked up I would have seen that The sky is full of red balloons Red balloons are full of broken hearts Broken hearts are floating by a chance Will they burst or drift Into arms Will they burst or drift Into arms I put my eyes in a red balloon To watch you with the light of the moon, But seeing you holding hands With another girl and making plans Well I just had to set you free And finally see, that The sky is full of red balloons Red balloons are full of broken hearts Broken hearts are floating by a chance Will they burst or drift Into arms, Will they burst or drift Into arms
