about

recorded with the windows open because it was a beautiful day.

lyrics

the lion laughed with the loons
the funeral flutes joined the bass bassoons
the sky was dark the moon was new
and silence cut her tune in two
too dark to see too dark to see
the black balloon that carried me
the black balloon that carried me

above the houses and the trees
above their thousand boughs and leaves
above the sound of empty streets
through towns of people counting sheep
too dark to see too dark to see
the black balloon that carried me
the black balloon that carried me

doo doo doo doo etc.

the lion laughed with the loons
the violets wore a strange perfume
the sky was dark the moon was new
i was there and you were too
too dark to see too dark to see
the black balloon that carried me
the black balloon that carried me
the black balloon that carried me
