Hot Air Balloon Lyrics - Owl City

We wrote a prelude 

To our own fairy tale 

And bought a parachute 

At a church rummage sale 

And with a mean sewing machine 

And miles of thread 

We sewed the day above L.A. 

In navy and red 

We wound a race track 

Through your mom's kitchen chairs 

And fought the shadows back 

Down your dark basement stairs 

I lit a match, then let it catch 

To light up the room 

And then you yelled as we beheld 

An old maroon hot air balloon

I'll be out of my mind 

And you'll be out of ideas 

Pretty soon 

So let's spend 

The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon 

Leave your jacket behind 

Lean out and touch the treetops over town 

I can't wait 

To kiss the ground 

Wherever we touch back down 

La la la la la laaa 

La la la la la laaa 

We drank the Great Lakes 

Like cold lemonade 

And both got stomach aches 

Sprawled out in the shade 

Photos 

So bored to death you held your breath 

And I tried not to yawn 

You made my frown turn upside down 

And now my worries are gone 

I'll be out of my mind 

And you'll be out of ideas 

Pretty soon 

So let's spend 

The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon 

Leave your jacket behind 

Lean out and touch the treetops over town 

I can't wait 

To kiss the ground 

Wherever we touch back down 

I'll be out of my mind 

And you'll be out of ideas 

Pretty soon 

So let's spend 

The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon 

Leave your jacket behind 

Lean out and touch the treetops over town 

I can't wait 

To kiss the ground 

Wherever we touch back down
