Gowans' Red Balloon

Blue strawberries from the garden growing high Four sweet colors And a million bubbles in the sky I took a picture You held the sun between your eyes I was born a bastard My love, you always had it right But in a sky of diamonds, Upsidedown I'm flying I watched people dying 'Till you and I were dying too So it happened I imagined you tonight Tied to a red balloon I watched it float you through the sky I snapped a picture Cause I could never trust my mind I was born a wisher Who never seemed to have the time Now when I look around me All I see is are upsidedown He's climbing up the upsidedown trees Hiding in the upsidedown leaves Below a sky of diamonds There floats a golden island Maybe I'll never find it But dear I won't stop trying Somewhere bluebirds are flying I'll sing a song to die in I'll sing a song.
