I pick her up an hour after nine

She laughs and says,

“Thanks for wasting my time”

I smile and nod submit to my doom

As we step into my hot air balloon



And it’s awkward

But we’re, we’re on our way



I asked her to spend a night on the stars

I know it’s cliché, but it did get me far

Jogging around from second to third

Then sprinting to home with no passion or words



And it’s awkward

But we’re, we’re on our way



She asks for a smoke and I said, “Hell no

You light up a match and this thing’s gonna blow”

She says, “Well maybe then

As we fall through the clouds

Heaven provides what the gods will allow”



And it’s awkward

But we’re, we’re on our way



She lights up the match the balloon soon explodes

We head to the ground hearing sounds of lost souls

She’s biting my lip and I’m closing my eyes

We hold each other for warmth

As we fall through the sky



And I fell in love for the first and the last time

I fell in love for the first and the last time



And it’s awkward

But we’re, we’re on our way
