Flying on Helium

See those two balloons

Flying above the treetops?

That's me and you

a child tied us together and let us go.

Look at us,

Shining like two stars in the daytime.

And we are here

On the whim of a child on the whim of the wind on a whim.

Ohhh

We were high on hope

We were low on cash

So we live low to the ground in our happy delirium.

We were flyin' on helium

We were flyin' on helium

How many deflated balloons

Cover the floors of the oceans?

Looks like me and you

Traveled far and wide then we died

But I've got a hunch that we ain't made of colored rubber and ribbon.

We are the air, the air that cannot be contained by anything.

Ohhh we were high on hope

We were low on cash

So we live low to the ground in our happy delirium

We were flying on helium

We were flying on helium

See those two balloons?

See those two balloons?

Flyin'

See those two balloons?

See those two balloons?

Flyin'

We are here on the whim of a child on the whim of the wind on a whim

We were high on hope, we were low on cash

So we live low to the ground in our happy delirium

We were flying on helium

Ohhh we were flying on helium

Flyin' on helium

Flyin' on helium
