Red Balloon

歌詞

(Th. Tol/J. Tuijp/C. Tol) Well did you hear about the story of the red balloon Little Johnny, he was called to be the captain of the crew He went aboard the ship and said: "We're gonna leave here soon" Little Johnny's selling tickets to the moon "So hurry if you want to come along with me today" He says, and then the band begins to play And this my friend is a wonderland So hold my hand They were singing with the band, band, band For all we need's a breeze in the air Rushing over mountains, watching the surroundings The captain gives the orders and we all obey And this my friend is a wonderland So hold my hand They were singing with the band, band, band For all we need's a breeze in the air Rushing over mountains, watching the surroundings The captain gives the orders and we all obey One day when Johnny tried to get it down, that red balloon He found out he never learned that trick the others didn't too And so they moved up higher and they realized it soon They were really going to be there on the moon The people down below they shouted and they were afraid But still there was the band for them to play (Up there, up there, they're going on, they're going on) And this my friend is a wonderland So hold my hand They were singing with the band, band, band For all we need's a breeze in the air Rushing over mountains, watching the surroundings The captain gives the orders and we all obey And this my friend is a wonderland So hold my hand They were singing with the band, band, band For all we need's a breeze in the air Rushing over mountains, watching the surroundings The captain gives the orders and we all obey Well here my friends, my story ends They story of the year But we're living in a crazy world So close your eyes and dream again
