Every year, exactly this time of year
They go a balloon up into the air
And hold on to what all is near
Remember everything is here

Every year, about this time of year
I am with you as if you are here
I remember the way it fell through
You were all we all could do

Watch your step
Take a cab
Don't touch that
Don't stand there
Life is hard
Steal that car
Bus will break
Give me your knife

I hope that you're with me then
A story to tell her boyfriend
I hope that they aren't just (unforgiving?)
I hope you will be careful
