[Verse 1]

Every year, exactly this time of year

They go up, balloon up into the air

And hold onto one who is near

Remember everything is here

Every year, exactly this time of year

They go up, balloon up into the air

And hold onto one who is near

Remember everything is here

[Verse 2]

Every year about this time of year

I am with you as if you are here

I remember the way it fell through

You and all we all could do

Every year about this time of year

I am with you as if you are here

I remember the way it fell through

You and all we all could do

[Bridge]

Watch your step

Take good care

Don't touch that

Don't stand there

Fire is hot

Steel can cut

Glass will break

If you're not—

[Verse 3]

I hope that you will be careful

The stories you told are hopeful

I hope that they aren't just artful

I hope that you will be careful
