Red Balloon

I'm trapped
Inside a giant red helium balloon
That just wants to fly away
Just wants to drift away
I try to hold on to the red string keeping us together
Cuz if the knot's undone
This balloon will fly
And with it will I
Let go
Will you let go
When it's getting hard
Oh, cuz it's getting hard
It all feels like a dream of another life
You're down there still on the ground
I'm knotted to your finger and right above your head
You see me dancing with the wind
I see you dancing to the music that I can't hear
Cuz I'm here and you are there
I wonder will I let go
Will you let go
When it's getting hard
Oh, cuz it's getting hard
It all feels like a dream of another life
How can I move on with all these what ifs in my head?
But how can life go on if I won't let myself free?
And will I regret
If I let go
Will you let go
When it's getting hard
Oh, cuz it's getting hard
Is it all just a dream of another life
