Lyrics of
The Balloon

And we had a ball playing games, eating dogs
Dsus
On a balloon that he won he wrote momma I had fun
Dsus
I wasn't sure what he had in mind till he jumped up and ran outside?
(Chorus)
And he let it go, and he waved good-bye
Or was it hello, I don't know but I died inside
I can still see his excitement him pointin? and smilin?
When it was gone as it could get
And he turned and asked me,
You think it's in heaven yet?
Dsus
He had in his heart and before I could start he walked me back inside
He gave me his crayola pen and said I'll bet there's a message
That you'd like to send, and no doubt he was right
A Dsus
I took that yellow balloon and wrote till I ran out of room?
(Chorus)
And I let it go, and we waved good-bye
That seven-year old Lord he opened my eyes
I can still see his excitement him pointin? and smilin?
When it was gone as it could get
Then I turned and asked him
You think it's in heaven yet?
