We forgot these balloons in the back of the car
From your birthday last June
Now they’re stuck to the tarp
Half of them sinking
One scratching the glass
Little rubber moons that just refuse to pass

[Chorus]
We’re like leftover balloons
Fading but we’re still in the room
Not as bright as we were at noon
But we’re hanging
Hanging
Hanging
We’re like leftover balloons
Floating on the edge of used
Not ready yet to come down soon
So we’re hanging
Hanging
Hanging

[Verse 2]
Crumbs in the cupholder
Tape on the dash
Your name in a marker that smeared with the trash
All of our plans in a plastic bouquet
Tangled on seat belts that still know your weight

[Chorus]
We’re like leftover balloons
Fading but we’re still in the room
Not as bright as we were at noon
But we’re hanging
Hanging
Hanging
We’re like leftover balloons
All the color slightly bruised
But we’re laughing in the quiet gloom
Yeah we’re hanging
Hanging
Hanging

[Bridge]
Do we pop
Do we crack
Do we drift into blue? (oh)
Or stay stuck to the ceiling
Just me here and you
It’s a silly little picture
But it’s stubbornly true
Every party ends
But I’m staying with you

[Chorus]
We’re like leftover balloons
Fading but we’re still in the room
Not as bright as we were at noon
But we’re hanging
Hanging
Hanging
We’re like leftover balloons
Nothing perfect
Nothing new
But I’ll float here in this honest view
Just hanging
Hanging
Hanging with you
