Katie Melua - Red Balloons

I put my heart in a red balloon
But I let it go too soon
Let it go on the boulevard
Where wicked winds blow so hard

Maybe had I looked up I would have
seen that

The sky is full of red balloons
Red balloons are full of broken hearts
Broken hearts are floating by a chance
Will they burst or drift
Into arms
Will they burst or drift
Into arms

I put my voice in a red balloon
For you it sang too many tunes
Haunted by those melodies
I let it go with the breeze

Maybe had I looked up I would have
seen that

The sky is full of red balloons
Red balloons are full of broken hearts
Broken hearts are floating by a chance
Will they burst or drift
Into arms
Will they burst or drift
Into arms

I put my eyes in a red balloon
To watch you with the light of the moon,
but seeing you holding hands
With another girl and making plans
Well I just had to set you free
And finally see, that

The sky is full of red balloons
Red balloons are full of broken hearts
Broken hearts are floating by a chance
Will they burst or drift
Into arms
Will they burst or drift
Into arms

"Red balloon are full of brocken hearts." My absolute favourite, so beautiful. I really love this song, it's amazing. <3 So full of emotions, though it's kinda sad and hopeless.

You are not alone! We all got in some ways brocken hearts! :)

Red Balloons and Black Balloon - two of my favorite songs

"All rights go to Dramatico" ? Well, I think all rights go to Dramatico, Katie Melua, and Polly Scattergood. :)

I love this song, although it will obviously never be a hit single. Or even a single. That's life.
