Hot Air Balloon


We wrote a prelude
To our own fairy tale
And bought a parachute
At a church rummage sale


And with a mean sewing machine
And miles of thread
We sewed the day above L.A.
In navy and red


We roamed a racetrack
Through your mom's kitchen chairs
And fought the shadows back
Down your dark basement stairs


I lit a match, then let it catch
To light up the room
And then you yelled as we beheld
An old maroon hot air balloon


I'll be out of my mind
And you'll be out of ideas pretty soon
So let's spend the afternoon
In a cold hot air balloon


Leave your jacket behind
Reach out and touch the treetops of our town
I can't wait to kiss the ground
Wherever we touch back down


We drank the great lakes
Like cold lemonade
And both got stomach aches
Sprawled out in the shade


So bored to death, you held your breath
And I tried not to yawn
You made my frown turn upside down
And now my worries are gone


I'll be out of my mind
And you'll be out of ideas pretty soon
So let's spend the afternoon
In a cold hot air balloon


Leave your jacket behind
Reach out and touch the treetops of our town
I can't wait to kiss the ground
Wherever we touch back down


I'll be out of my mind
And you'll be out of ideas pretty soon
So let's spend the afternoon
In a cold hot air balloon


Leave your jacket behind
Reach out and touch the treetops of our town
I can't wait to kiss the ground
Wherever we touch back down

  1. This. Is. Amazing!!!!! I absolutely love the idea of narrating a photo shoot with song lyrics, I've always wanted to do something like this for a Paramore song (because clearly I have an unhealthy obsession, hehe) =) Fabulous post, the pictures are stunning!!!! My favorites are the sixth and eighth =D

    1. Aww, thanks Maddie! Yeah, I actually bought the shirt with this whole idea in mind... I saw it in the Etsy store and instantly though of the Hot Air balloon song. xD
      (And I don't judge, my Owl City obsession is probably as bad as your Paramore obsession. xD)
      And thank you!!! I was really happy with these batch of photos. :)

  3. Um, can I have that shirt? Haha, I am kidding! I love this idea though! It is definitely something I may think about doing in the future. I also love all the photos. I looked them through multiple times to try and find a favorite, but I just can't pick one! They are all stunning!!
