Red Balloon

It was 3 a.m. when the rooster crowed
Strange when you're living in the middle of a city
So I ran back into my smoky dream
From half a song away

Stranger things
Stranger things
Blowing in on a string
Send you tumbling for a red balloon

To a cloud bank I flew
And withdrew all that I own
Traded all that I own
For a pile of shells

The seven seas are clearly raging

Signs and dreams
Signs and dreams
Blowing in on a string
Blowing in on a string
Send you tumbling for a red balloon
Send you tumbling for a red balloon

It was 8 a.m. when my subway came
Some say you gotta keep moving
Through the window I gaze
Through the gathering haze for a sign

Signs and dreams
Signs and dreams
Blowing in on a string
Blowing in on a string
Send you tumbling for a rеd balloon
Send you tumbling for a red balloon
