Blue Balloon - The Hourglass Song

I have a blue balloon a happy tune
Love enough to last me all through the aftermoon
I have the new york times fourteen dimes
An explanation of the most profound nursery rhymes
Before the rivers run dry before the last said goodbye
Let's be kind to one another we can try
So don't just throw your love about
It's not too late to find out
Before the sand has all run out of the hour-glass
A carnival is here and clowns appear
Plastic painted people hold each other near
Hopes are always high the echo of the sky
And when it's over there's just lonely sound of goodbye
Too late to hide it now it's all around us now
Oh how i want you girl to lie beside me now
While there's steeless time and all my pones to ride
Let me love you now we can drink a cool good wine
Before the rivers run dry before the last said goodbye
Let us be kind to one another we can try
So don't just throw your love about
You and me hey let's find out
Before the sand has all run out of the hour-glass
