I am a kite
I have no wings
And yet I fly
You hold the string for me
As I float on high
I am a kite
Paper and sting
A scrap of wood
The wind will sing to me
I am a bird
See how I ride
A butterfly with wings spread wide
I'm but a child's plaything
You give me life
Tied to your hand
Your spirit with me rides
I look down on where you stand
Lift you up to my side
I am a kite
A bright balloon with a wayward tail
Race to the moon
On breaths of moving sky I sail
I am a kite
I have no wings
And yet I fly
You hold the string for me
As I float on high
