Balloons

I'm sorry the party has ended so soon
I hear the rain beating down hard on balloons
I think I gave up long before my chance passed
Just dreaming of things that I never should have
I danced for the gods and they granted my wish
It left me a scar, I expected a kiss

I see through the grey to the reds and the blues
Can I say that it's just someone else's deluge
Oh, can I pretend I'm not crushed by disgrace
And the softness and love that I see in your face
And if I turn up at the door where you are
A kiss where I had expected a scar
