Black Balloon

what's the challenge for today

come on Carmen give the boys a clue

god I know you think we're sad

admiration always makes you mad



i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon

i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon



in the English contryside

Carmen comes to terms with History

trades her sister for a horse

take me where you think I ought to be



i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon

i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon

i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon



love your children, love your wife

give them money, leave their life

flying's cool, dump the car

i'm going to America



i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon

i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon

i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon

i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon
