Helium (feat. Chantal Daigle)

from Flying Lessons by Isaac Balson

lyrics

When I was young my mom told me,
about the time when her mom,
watered the statue in the garden
to watch it grow

And I laughed when I was young,
just because I was young,
never been anything else.

She keeps helium by the stairs for when she goes
she's going to go laughing
she keeps helium by the stairs for when she goes
she'll go high pitched and laughing

my old man used to talk about the time that would come
when he gets too old to stoke the fire just to watch it go out
and if we laughed when we were young it's just because we were young
and never seen anything else

and I get it if you're scared
but for a while at least you won't be going anywhere,
and if time whispers on so slow,
you can meet me at the station for the last train to go home
