The Raincoats
Balloon
The ship turned into a balloon that sank
Wind’s blowing the roofs away
The ship turned into a balloon that sank
Wind’s blowing the roofs away

My heart beats
A frenetic flow of landscapes
Cripples my thinking
The roof is sinking
Landscapes of the foreign country
You’re still living in
And it’s cold

The ship turned into a balloon that sank
Wind’s blowing the roofs away
She was smiling at him yesterday

Your heart beats
And frenetically landscapes flow
Crippling your thinking
The bird is sinking
The roofs are singing

The ship turned into a balloon that sank
Wind’s blowing the roofs away
She was smiling at him yesterday
Your heart beats
And frenetically landscapes flow
Crippling your thinking
The bird is sinking (the bird is sinking)
The roofs are singing (the roofs are singing)
We should be living, believe, believe (we should be living, believe)
We should be living, believe, believe (we should be living, believe)
We should be living

The bird is sinking (the bird is sinking)
The roofs are singing (the roofs are singing)
We should be living, believe, believe (we should be living, believe)
We should be living, believe, believe (we should be living, believe)
We should be living, believe, believe (we should be living, believe)
We should be living, believe, believe (we should be living, believe)
We should be living
