Give me a red balloon on a long black string
I'd be richer than any king
With my red balloon on a long black string
I can whistle and I can sing
Chorus:
Laughs are many and tears are few
Life's exciting and always new
In a world of girls and boys
In a world of simple joys

Give me a paper kite on a windy day
Oh I think I'll fly away
With my paper kite on a windy day
Yes, I think I'll fly away

Give me a warm spring day and an appletree
There is nothin that I can't see
When I look out from my apple tree
Look up there and you'll see me

Give me a jar of bubbles and a good friend
The day will be just ours to spend
With my jar of bubbles and a good friend
Pray the day will never end
