C#2 F#
Baby’s Black Balloon makes her fly

I almost fell into that hole in your life

And you’re not thinking about tomorrow

But on your knees

C#2 F#
A thousand other boys could never reach you

That was your womb

Inside your room, yeah

All because I’m


C#2 G# F# C#2
Comin’ down the years turned over

C#2 G# F# C#2
And angels fall without you there

C#2 G# F# C#2
And I go on to bring you home

C#2 G# C# G# G# C#
All because I’m, all because I’m, and I’ll become

F# C#
What you became to me
