Big blue skies and an open fieldMy right hand on a steering wheelTwo young lovers runnin' wildWe bought string and a brand new kiteWe couldn't wait to watch it flyBut it flew too high, it flew too highBut here comes the wind, let your string unwindRun as fast as you can in your mindBack to a place that you never forgotBefore everything was lostI don't remember when we ran out of ropeBut when we did we lost all hopeWe just stood there cryin'Thats what we learned about flyin'So I took your hand and you took mineAnd we waltzed together in timeBut looking back I guess I didn't knowThat I was in love and you were letting goIt's funny how your mind plays tricks on youSeemed like the higher and higher we flewYou took off and I was made of stoneI was made of stoneBut here comes the wind, let your string unwindRun as fast as you can in your mindBack to a place that you never forgotBefore everything was lostI don't remember when we ran out of ropeBut when we did we lost all hopeWe just stood there cryin'Thats what we learned about flyin'But here comes the wind, let your string unwindRun as fast as you can in your mindBack to a place that you never forgotBefore everything was lostI don't remember when we ran out of ropeBut when we did we lost all hopeWe just stood there cryin'Thats what we learned about flyin'Thats what we learned about flyin'
