Nelly Furtado – “Red Balloons” (online unreleased track premiere)

Nelly Furtado Daily has just shared a new unreleased song by Nelly called Red Balloons probably from the “Lifestyle” sessions. Produced by John Shanks.

Nelly Furtado – “Red Balloons” LYRICS:

There’s a string wrapped around my finger

It’s getting tighter everyday

And it just goes on forever

It’s wrapped around every word you said

It’s like a memory

A shoe-box in my mind

It’s calling out to me to open up and look inside

It makes me believe in all we could have been

But all the things we were it’s just me imagining

Take these red balloons and watch them fly away

I’m untying my heart and letting go today

Time has come for me to see the truth

And walk up to the edge and let go all these red balloons

There’s a shadow when I walk forward

And it keeps trying to hold me back

I can cry at the strangest moments

Reminding me of what I can’t have

Don’t wanna believe in all we could have been

Cuz I’m so tired of everything I’m imagining

Take these red balloons and watch them fly away

I’m untying my heart and letting go today

Time has come for me to see the truth

And walk up to the edge and let go all these red balloons

The child in me wants to run and collect every single balloon and never forget

The child in me wants to live in a dream of carousels and wish me well

Take these red balloons and watch them fly away

I’m untying my heart and letting go today

Cuz every single dream of the past does nothing for me or hold me back

Time has come for me to see the truth

I walked up to the edge and let go all these red balloons

Red balloons x3

Yes they’ve flown away

The tears are in my eyes

I said goodbye.
