Kite Lyrics

Verse 1:
I hid myself from failure and fear
Oh my dear you're a threat to the bad in us all
They tell themselves that each word from your lips
Or the grace in your eyes overcomes any fall
Pre-Chorus:
All through the twilight you're listening for me
Darling, go to sleep
Cradled by moonlight, I'm dreaming we'll be
Loved so deep
Chorus:
Floating and fighting, like a kite on a string
Eo D D(b5) C#o
?Till you cut through my tether and changed everything
From the sky you looked small, but I loved you the same
Eo D D(b5) C#o
So I darted back quickly to spell out your name
And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite
Eo D D(b5) C#o Dm - Am - Bb - Gm
You'll tell them you're proud of my marvelous flight
Verse 2:
Don't hide yourself inside ?till I'm old
Oh my dear you're a threat to the bad we all see
I'm beside myself for the touch of your lips
Or the grace of your eyes that can see good in me
(Pre-Chorus)
Chorus:
Floating and fighting, like a kite on a string
Eo D D(b5) C#o
?Till you cut through my tether and changed everything
From the sky you looked small, but I loved you the same
Eo D D(b5) C#o
So I darted back quickly to spell out your name
And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite
Eo D D(b5) C#o Dm - Am - Bb - Gm
You'll tell them you're proud of my marvelous flight
