[00:18.34]You and I in a little toy shop
[00:22.45]buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
[00:26.74]Set them free at the break of dawn
[00:31.04]'Til one by one, they were gone
[00:35.64]Back at base, bugs in the software
[00:39.89]Flash the message, "Something's out there"
[00:44.43]Floating in the summer sky
[00:48.83]99 red balloons go by.
[01:09.75]99 red balloons
[01:13.54]floating in the summer sky
[01:17.59]Panic bells, it's red alert
[01:21.69]There's something here from somewhere else
[01:25.60]The war machine springs to life
[01:29.73]Opens up one eager eye
[01:33.77]Focusing it on the sky
[01:37.91]As 99 red balloons go by.
[01:58.64]99 Decision Street, 99 ministers meet
[02:06.23]To worry, worry, super-scurry
[02:10.31]Call out the troops now in a hurry
[02:14.30]This is what we've waited for
[02:18.29]This is it boys, this is war
[02:22.23]The president is on the line
[02:43.36][02:35.32][02:26.34]As 99 red balloons go by.
[03:07.60]99 dreams I have had
[03:12.05]In every one a red balloon
[03:16.49]It's all over and I'm standin' pretty
[03:20.83]In the dust that was a city
[03:25.08]If I could find a souvenier
[03:29.58]Just to prove the world was here...
[03:33.83]And here it is, a red balloon
[03:38.23]I think of you and let it go...
