Copeland - Kite lyrics

I hid myself from failure and fear O 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 Over the twilight you're listening for me Darling, go to sleep Cradled by moonlight, I'm dreaming we'll be Loved so deep Floating and fighting, like a kite on a string Till you cut through my tether and changed everything From the sky you looked small, but I loved you the same So I darted back quickly to spell out your name And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite You'll tell them you're proud of my loveless flight Don't hide yourself inside till I'm old O 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 Over the twilight you're listening for me Darling, go to sleep Cradled by moonlight, I'm dreaming we'll be Loved so deep Floating and fighting, like a kite on a string Till you cut through my tether and changed everything From the sky you looked small, but I loved you the same So I darted back quickly to spell out your name And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite You'll tell them you're proud of my loveless flight
