Kite (2006)
Started out so right, together every night,
Holding on tight…
Now the money’s gone, what else could go wrong?
I’ve been taken for a ride…
Oh, how the wind lifts me up, only to let me down,
Chorus
Think of a tattered kite,
Wrapped in broken string, captured in flight,
I’m like that kite,
Lost in a tree of dreams, out of reach, and out of sight…
Golden chains were made, for all the dues we paid,
The future looked bright…
Like plans of mice and men, some things never end,
or turn out right...
Oh, how the wind lifts me up, only to let me down,
Chorus
Think of a tattered kite,
Wrapped in broken string, captured in flight,
I’m like that kite,
Lost in a tree of dreams, out of reach, and out of sight…
Bridge
I can’t help believing, this love of mine’s leaving,
My chances are blowing away.
Chorus
Think of a tattered kite,
Wrapped in broken string, captured in flight,
I’m like that kite,
Lost in a tree of dreams, out of reach, and out of sight…
