The Civil Wars Lyrics

"Girl With the Red Balloon" lyrics


There's a pub on the south side of town
Time stands still while there's still wine around
She's the one you let in out of the cold
The one who's neer and always 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,
She's the girl with the red balloon?

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?
