The Balloon Song(Album Version) - Mark Wills

作词:Casey Beathard

作曲:Casey Beathard

I set a friend of mine up on a date

And I told him

I'd watch his boy for the day

And we had a ball

Playin' games eatin' dogs

Riding rides at the county fair

I thought he was just being a kid

When we got back to my place

And he did what he did

On a balloon that he won

He wrote mama I had fun

I missed you

And I wished you were there

I wasn't sure what he had in mind

'Til he jumped up and ran outside

And he let it go he waved goodbye

Or was it hello

I don't know but I died inside

I can still see his excitement

Him pointing and smilin'

When it was gone as it could get

He turned and asked me

You think it's in heaven yet

I struggled for something to say

I was too choked up

Lackin' the kind of faith

He had in his heart

Before I could start

He walked me back inside

He gave me his crayola pen

Said I bet there's a message

That you'd like to send

And no doubt

He was right it's been locked

Up inside since my grandpa said goodbye

I took that yellow balloon and I wrote

'Till I ran out of room then

I let it go and we waved goodbye

That seven year old

Lord he opened my eyes

I can still see his excitement

Him pointing and smilin'

When it was gone as it could get

I turned and asked him

You think it's in heaven yet
