Miles Maxwell - Maroon Balloon Lyrics

You know I got it last week at the state fair
The fairest gift that I saw there
It was the thing I wanted most
It spun my head and drew me close

My friends say it shouldn't fly so high
It might get lost in the blue sky
But there's one thing they don't understand
Is that I grip it tight in my left hand

I don't wanna lose
I don't wanna lose
I ain't gonna lose my maroon balloon

I know it's special cause I've
Never seen another
And I will keep it sacred
It's ribbon tied to my wrist
I love it, I love it, I love it,
I don't want any other
And if you try to take it then
Your face is gonna meet my fist

I don't wanna lose
I don't wanna lose
I ain't gonna lose my maroon balloon
