Black Balloon
Elevator straight into my skull
The escalator rises as it falls
I swear our chant is crashin’ in my mind
You can hold on but I wouldn’t waste your time
Farewell my black balloon
Farewell my black balloon
I’ve stood in a thousand street scenes
Just around the corner from you
On the edge of a dream that you have
Has anybody ever told you it’s not coming true
Farewell my black balloon
Farewell my black balloon
The weather had its way with you
Farewell my black balloon
The weather had its way with you
Farewell my black balloon

Goo Goo Dolls Black Balloon lyrics:
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you’re not thinking about tomorrow
‘Cause you were the same as me
But on your knees
A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon
That was your womb
Comin’ down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone’s prayer
You know the lies they always told you
And the love you never knew
What’s the things they never showed you
That swallowed the light from the sun
Inside your room
Comin’ down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I’ll go on to bring you home
All because I’m
All because I’m
And I’ll become
What you became to me
Monster Magnet black balloon lyrics:
Hey man whats your name?
Ive seen your face always before
Tapped in to a cosmic fame
Got the gig I was looking for yeah
Hungry, thats no drag
Its nothing that a trip wont cure
Completion is in that bag
Selfish crowd come back for more
Well I reached in the bag for a new latitude
And all I got out was a black balloon
Was a black balloon
Was a black balloon
Hey babe, Im out of the cage
Behind some glass miles away
So sue me for being too cool
I hate myself for wanting to play
Guess all Ive got to say about karmas true
Cos all Ive got left is a black balloon
Is a black balloon
Is a black balloon
Is a black balloon
Is a black balloon
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

you keep me in suspence – for the green one!
- or yellow?
yes, there might be some more up to greening expectations…
expectations in what? – spring feelings?
incredible! – makes me jealous not to have the equipment to express my ideas on video. – but there is another one who did it quite impressive! thanks for transmission, Anni!
This is actually one of my favourite songs because of the black balloon theme and symbolism, and I think the black ones are my favourites among Your balloons, too.
