Red Balloon - Mark Lanegan

Got myself a red balloon, got a blue surprise

Hidden in the red balloon, pinning up my eyes

A love-light for my eyes, blue, blue surprise

We met as friends and you were so easy to get to know

Will we see one-another again?

Oh my, I hope so

Played with toys for children

As I child I got

Haven’t any time for children,

Although I’ve got a lot

Took a love-light from my eyes

Blue, blue surprise

Got myself a red balloon, got a blue surprise

Hidden in the red balloon, pinning up my eyes

Took a love-light from my eyes

Blue, blue surprise
