One balloon in the sky
Only a few months past by
I was too young to know
I was too young to cry
Another year passed by

Two balloons in the sky
It’s been a whole year
But they still cry
For you
Another year passed by

Three balloons in the sky
Finally their eyes have dried
Maybe it’s about time
But maybe not
I wonder if they just forgot
To cry
Twelve more years passed by

One balloon in the sky
This one’s different
This one’s mine
I was too young to know back then
And maybe I still am
But maybe not
I wonder if they just forgot
As one balloon
Says good bye
From Earth to Heaven
Through the sky
