Balloon Heaven

I remember you playing your tune
You flew to heaven on a balloon
The lights were low on Avenue A
I stared in space and listened to you play
Stoned eyes and a gap-tooth grin
Laughing every minute that the house lights dim
With strange joy dancing off those strings
Cheap mandolin making me see things yeah
Turn it up to 11
You're swerving into heaven, heaven

Balloon heaven
I remember you leaving too soon
You flew to heaven, thought it was the moon
Pure heart but the mind didn't know
Laughing your way 'til the end of the show
And playing wild, wild for the table in back
High off your ass smoking all of that crack up
Turn it up to 11
You're swerving into heaven, heaven
Never learning any lessons

Just swerving into heaven, heaven yeah
Balloon heaven
Going up, up to balloon heaven
