Balloon Days That I won't be here After next year Breaks my heart Because I have fallen in love with you, I think. Your gorgeous smile Your deep brown eyes Your joy in the little things Your stubbornness in the face of adversity The way you reach for the stars Or the moon, at least Make me want to be with you Through all life gives you And I am sure You will ask me to stay with you always Just as soon as you learn How to say it.
