Black Balloon (Live from Sessions@AOL)The Goo Goo Dolls

[Verse 1]
Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking about tomorrow
Cause you were the same as me
But on your knees
A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one?
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon that was your womb

[Chorus]
Coming down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer?

[Verse 2]
You know the lies they always told you
And the lovе you never knew
What's thе things they never showed you
That swallow the light from the sun inside your room, yeah

[Chorus]
Coming down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer?

[Bridge]
And there's no time left for losing
When you stand they fall, yeah

[Chorus]
Coming down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
All because I'm
Coming down the year's turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I'll go on and I'll lead you home and
All because I'm
All because I'm
And I'll become
What you became to me

The Goo Goo Dolls

The Goo Goo Dolls are an American rock band formed in 1986 in Buffalo, NY, during one of Buffalo’s most prolific underground music phases. The band was formed by John Rzeznik (Also known as Johnny Rzeznik), lead singer and songwriter for the band, with bassist/vocalist Robby Takac, and drummer George Tutuska. Mike Malinin later replaced Tutuska as the band’s drummer.

The band has released twelve studio albums between 1986 and 2017, but they are best known for platinum-selling A Boy Named Goo (1995) and Dizzy Up the Girl (1998). These mid- to late 1990s albums contain the Goo Goo Dolls' biggest hits to date – Name and Iris most notably, but also Slide, Black Balloon, and Dizzy

These hits made the Goo Goo Dolls a household name for radio-friendly “prom night power balladry” (as one Rolling Stone review put it), but the band’s early output was often far rougher musically, melding the band’s edgier punk influences with an often soft sensibility in the mold of the band’s early heroes, The Replacements. One can hear these influences on many songs on A Boy Named Goo though these affinities would fade after Dizzy Up the Girl.
