Girl With The Red Balloon
The Civil Wars · Barton Hollow [2011]
There's a pub on the South side of town
Time stands still while there's still wine around
She's the one in the Calico
The one who's always and never alone
Did she let him go or did the four winds blow him away
Oh does she even know
She's the girl with the red balloon
Keep her glass full of cheap champagne
She will tell of a man with no name
Smoke and mirrors have done her in
She's in love and she won't be again
Oh did she let him go or did the four winds blow him away
Oh does she even know
She's the girl with the red balloon
So lovely
So lonely
Floating away
Oh did she let him go or did the four winds blow him away
Oh does she even know
Oh did she let him go or did the four winds blow him away
Oh does she even know
She's the girl
She's the girl with the red balloon
Time stands still while there's still wine around
She's the one in the Calico
The one who's always and never alone
Did she let him go or did the four winds blow him away
Oh does she even know
She's the girl with the red balloon
Keep her glass full of cheap champagne
She will tell of a man with no name
Smoke and mirrors have done her in
She's in love and she won't be again
Oh did she let him go or did the four winds blow him away
Oh does she even know
She's the girl with the red balloon
So lovely
So lonely
Floating away
Oh did she let him go or did the four winds blow him away
Oh does she even know
Oh did she let him go or did the four winds blow him away
Oh does she even know
She's the girl
She's the girl with the red balloon
