lyrics

Well, I wonder what you remember
as I turn the heater up to high
There’s a certain change in scenery
where white snow becomes black ice
Then the pine trees turn to plains
the clouds fracture and relent
My memories are thawing
but they’re rotten with regret

It pays to catch a fraying rope
You can’t check your knots too soon
Even blue skies can get so boring
but you’re my red balloon

Now you’re basically a bobby pin
that I wear on my lapel
Forgotten till I feel you there
and I’m struck much like a bell
Some scenic stretch of interstate
your eyes like a national park
Some moments I keep like postcards
but our years have all gone dark

It pays to catch a fraying rope
You can’t check your knots too soon
Even blue skies can get so boring
but you’re my red balloon

I guess I’ll always love you
Is a line that’s never spoke too soon
Even blue skies can get so boring
but you’re my red balloon
