Lyric

Let it out, let it climb

Give the wind a little time

String in my hand and the hill so green

Highest thing I've ever seen

It pulls a little, then it flies

A paper heart against the skies

They rise on wings, they do not tire

The ones who wait get lifted higher

Kite, kite, catch the day

Let the weather take you away

Hold the line but not too tight

Everything is meant for flight

It dips, it drops, it finds the air

The falling's part of getting there

I used to grip until it tore

Now I let it out some more

Kite, kite, catch the day

Let the weather take you away

Hold the line but not too tight

Everything is meant for flight

The wind was never mine to make

I only have to stay awake

Kite, kite, catch the day

Let the weather take you away

Hold the line but not too tight

Everything is meant for flight

Let it out, let it climb

Give the wind a little time
