Heaven Bound Balloons

作曲 : Granger Smith/Andy Albert/Jordan Schmidt

I saw them sitting with their legs crossed in their backyard

The kids had magic markers writing on balloons

They let one go and watched it sail above the treetops

So I went outside to see what they were doing

They said daddy we've been sending notes to grandpa

I just smiled, sat down and said, "Mind if I join y'all?"

We wrote "We miss you and we love you"

Told him things are great down here

We spelled it out and sent it up

And we watched it disappear

Sometimes I guess you gotta see it to believe it

'Cause right then I knew those blue sky prayers were getting through

When we let go of those heaven bound balloons

Before we knew it I swear we'd made at least a dozen

One for everyone we wished were here but wasn't

There was a red one for our labrador named Rio

And a blue one too, miss Ruth who used to live just down the road

We wrote "We miss you and we love you"

Told 'em things are great down here

We spelled it out and sent it up

And we watched it disappear

Sometimes I guess you gotta see it to believe it

'Cause right then I knew those blue sky prayers were getting through

When we let go of those heaven bound balloons

Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah I know that I'll be sitting up there someday

Don't forget to send a couple of 'em my way

Say miss you and we love you"

Tell me things are great down here

Just spell it out and send it up

And we watch it disappear

Sometimes I guess you gotta see it to believe it

'Cause right then I knew those blue sky prayers were getting through

When we let go of those heaven bound balloons

Let go of those heaven bound balloons

Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
