Blue Balloon
Theme from "Jeremy"

I have a blue balloon
A happy tone
Loaf enough to last me
All through the afternoon
I have the New York Times
Fourteen dimes
An explanation of the most profound nursery rhymes

Before the rivers run dry
Before the last sad goodbye
Let's be kind to one another
We can try
So don't just throw your love about
It's not too late to find out
Before the sand has all run out
Of the hourglass

A carnival is here
And clowns appear
Plastic painted people
Hold each other near
Hopes are always high
The echo of the sky
And when it's over
There's just lonely sound of goodbye

Too late to hide it now
It's all around us now
Oh how I want you girl
To lie beside me now
While there still is time
And all my poems still rhyme
Let me love you now
We can drink a good, good wine

Before the rivers run dry
Before the last sad goodbye
Let us be kind to one another
We can try
So don't just throw your love about
You and me
Hey, let's find out
Before the sand has all run out
Of the hourglass
