i was high
|
like a kite you pulled me through
|
when you ran
|
i followed you
|
|
clipped at the wings
|
you held all my strings
|
i was taught
|
but never learned a thing
|
|
is it any wonder
|
i came crashing down
|
when i did i hit solid ground
|
was it all a blunder
|
or were all those years i spent
|
head in clouds heaven sent
|
|
gotta learn to walk
|
before you run
|
you flew before you
|
learned either one
|
|
now you're gone, you're gone
|
now you're gone, you're gone
|
|
tangled in you
|
i aimed for the wild blue
|
when i hit the ground
|
what a bitter earth i found
|
|
kites without strings
|
fly on to bigger things
|
but you brought me down
|
you were determined,
|
i was bound
|
|
you can't fly away
|
from who you are
|
you tried and you
|
drifted way too far
|
|
now you're gone, you're gone
|
now you're gone, you're gone
|
|
flying on the ground
|
is always wrong
|
i let it go but you kept holding on
|
|
now you're gone, you're gone
|
now you're gone, you're gone
|
now you're gone, you're gone
|
now you're gone, you're gone
|
