I have a blue balloon, a happy tune
Love enough to last me all through the afternoon
I have the New York Times, 14 dimes
And explanations of the most profound nursery rhymes
Before the rivers run dry
Before the last sad goodbye
Let's be kind to one another
We can try
So don't just throw your love about
It's not too late to find out
Before the sand has all run out of the hourglass
The carnival is here, the clowns appear
Plastic painted people hold each other near
Hopes are always high, they echo off the sky
And when it's over, there's just a lonely sound of goodbye
Too late to hide it now, it's all around us now
Oh, how I want you girl to lie beside me now
While there still is time, and all my poems still rhyme
Let me love you now, we can drink a good, good wine
Before the rivers run dry, before the last sad goodbye
Let us be kind to one another, we can try
So don't just throw your love about
You and me, hey, let's find out
Before the sand has all run out of the hourglass
