Midlake - Balloon Maker Lyrics






He was a great balloon maker
The balloons were never known for speed
There's no way that you'll get sweet
You asked me to waste some time

Come out to see the sun, you're all we've got
But I said, "I think there's more of them like us"
And he said, "You might be right we'll find them in time
Somewhere" I had a dream, yeah

He was a great balloon maker
Then they outlawed all balloons
He packed up and put his things away
He asked me to waste some time

Come out to see the sun, you're all we've got
But I said, "I think there's more of them like us"
And he said, "You might be right we'll find them in time
Somewhere" I had a dream

Come out to see the sun, you're all we've got
But I said, "I think there's more of them like us"
And he said, "You might be right we'll find them in time
Somewhere"
