Big blue skies and an open field

My right hand on the steering wheel

Two young lovers runnin' wild

We bought string and a brand new kite

We couldn't wait to watch it fly

But it flew too high, it flew too high



Here comes the wind let your string unwind

Run as fast as you can in your mind

Back to a place that you never forgot

Before everything was lost

I don't remember when we ran out of rope

When we did we lost all hope

And we just stood there cryin'

That what's we learned about flyin'



So I took your hand and you took mine

And we waltzed togheter in time

But looking back I guess I didn't know

That I was in love and you were letting go

It's funny how your mind plays tricks on you

Seemed like the higher and higher we flew

You took off and I was made of stone

I was made of stone



Here comes the wind let your string unwind

Run as fast as you can in your mind

Back to a place that you never forgot

Before everything was lost

I don't remember when we ran out of rope

When we did we lost all hope

And we just stood there cryin'

That what's we learned about flyin'



Here comes the wind let your string unwind

Run as fast as you can in your mind

Back to a place that you never forgot

Before everything was lost

I don't remember when we ran out of rope

When we did we lost all hope

And we just stood there cryin'

That what's we learned about flyin'
