Blue Balloons (B.B’s Song)

I wrote this for my friend

A friend I never knew

Now every single stage we grace they know your name

It's safe to say they throw their lighters in the air

I know that you were there

On that sun drenched afternoon

I felt your spirit in the wind

We threw a hundred blue balloons for you

A hundred blue balloons for you

I can not forget the view

And I've never known the truth

Like the words they spoke for you my friend, it's not the end

We're sending you a hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons for you

I could not forget the view

And I've never known the truth

Like the words they spoke for you my friend, it's not the end

We're sending you a hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons

W'dup brother, I'm penning you this letter

And you know I gotta send it even though we never met up

But I hope that you get this wherever you are

I hope you know in my heart I consider us connected

See myself reflected in you

A few years difference but rolling with a similar crew

We were two young fellas tryna make it out the mountains

And by all accounts man you sounded astounding

I know, yeah I know you were amazing

'Cause I recognise the written on the faces

Of your family and friends, I'm sorry for their loss

I'm offering my them my commiserations

This a dedication to the life

Of a beautiful soul I wish that I could've known

But I don't so I'm writing this poem just to say

I will never forget how I felt on that day

I wrote this for my friend

A friend I never knew

Now every single stage we grace they know your name

It's safe to say they throw their lighters in the air

I know that you were there

On that sun drenched afternoon

I felt your spirit in the wind

We threw a hundred blue balloons for you

A hundred blue balloons for you

We threw a hundred blue balloons for you

A hundred blue balloons for you

We threw a hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons

This one's for everyone that's ever lost anyone

Does real closure even exist? Tryna find a bit of peace

Can't help but feel like everything is said and done

We're still left stricken with grief

And there's no time limits to heartbreak

So hard we can't shake the pain so we dwell on the loss

'Cause memories live on in the minds of your loved ones

Each tear's a memento shed in every drop

So if you're listening in just know that you were a gift

You're someone I'll never forget and it feels so surreal

That I never even met you in a pass life

I reckon we were probably friends

For those who did it goes one foot after the other

Tryna hold it together while bearing the weight

Just know I got love for the brother, I'll hold it forever

I feel blessed just to mention your name

I wrote this for my friend

A friend I never knew

Now every single stage we grace they know your name

It's safe to say they throw their lighters in the air

I know that you were there

On that sun drenched afternoon

I felt your spirit in the wind

We threw a hundred blue balloons for you

A hundred blue balloons for you

I can not forget the view

And I've never known the truth

Like the words they spoke for you my friend, it's not the end

We're sending you a hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons for you

I could not forget the view

And I've never known the truth

Like the words they spoke for you my friend, it's not the end

We're sending you a hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons

A hundred blue balloons
