It’s a dangerous temptation
To try to fly
With hundreds of blue balloons to the sky
Believe me, the birds will not fly near by
Hold on and grip the threads
Collecting the slipping dreams
Oh blue balloons just take me away
Away into the blue
It’s such a dangerous temptation
To be burned out by bright light or asphyxiated
Above the peaceful forest and majestic mountains
A little sweet escape
The helium escape
Lighter than air to find a way back into atmosphere
Inside the elastic blue balloons
Extraordinary odyssey
