99 Red Balloons Lyrics - Walk Together, Rock Together - 7 Seconds

You and I in a little toy shop 

Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got 

Set them free at the break of dawn 

'Til one by one, they were gone 

Back at base bugs in the software 

Flash the message, something's out there 

Floating in the summer sky 

99 red balloons go by 

99 red balloons 

Floating in the summer sky 

Panic bells it's red alert 

There's something here from somewhere else 

The war machine springs to life 

Opens up one eager eye 

Focusing it on the sky 

As 99 red balloons go by 

99 Decision street 

99 ministers meet 

To worry, worry, super scurry 

Call the troops out in a hurry 

This is what we've waited for 

This is it boys, this is war 

The president is on the line 

As 99 red balloons go by 

99 knights of the air 

Ride super high tech jet fighters 

Everyone's a super hero 

Everyone's a Captain Kirk 

With orders to identify 

To clarify and classify 

Scramble in the summer sky 

99 red balloons go by 

99 dreams I have had 

In every one, a red balloon 

It's all over and I'm standing pretty 

In this dust that was a city 

If I could find a souvenir 

Just to prove the world was here 

And here is a red balloon 

I think of you and let it go
