Lyrics

Balbo's Theme

A friend I call sometimes

A friend I call Balbo

A friend I call truthful

But still just a friend

I followed her down

To the place we go sometimes

And waited to see how she'd end

Fell on the scene on her electron beam

Drew her scarves from her sides with incredible speed

I followed her down to that place we go sometimes

But sometimes it's all that we need

And I hope you stand tall, get over it all

But Balbo your heart sits too close to the window

And I hope you get through, I'm counting on you

My Balbo your heart sits too close to the window

A friend I call sometimes

A friend I call Balbo

A friend I call truthful

But still just a friend

I followed her down

To that place we go sometimes

And waited to see how she'd end

She fell on the scene on her electron beam

Drew her scarves from her sides with incredible speed

I followed her down to that place we go sometimes

But sometimes it's all that we need

And I hope you stand tall, get over it all

But Balbo your heart sits too close to the window

And I hope you get through, I'm counting on you

My Balbo your heart sits too close to the window

Your heart sits too close to the window

Your heart sits too close to the window

Your heart sits too close to me

A friend I call sometimes

A friend I call Balbo

A friend I call truthful

But still just a friend

I followed her down

To that place we go sometimes

And waited to see how she'd end
