Elevator straight into my skull
The escalator rises as it falls
I swear a jet is crashing in my mind
You can hold on but I wouldn't waste your time

Farewell my black balloon
Farewell my black balloon

I've stood in a thousand street scenes
Just around the corner from you
On the edge of a dream that you have
Has anybody ever told you it's [bad word] [bad word] 

Farewell my black balloon
Farewell my black balloon,
Let the weather have it's way with you
Farewell my black balloon,
Let the weather have it's way with you
Farewell my black balloon
