Like a Kite Em/ G Rick James Jameszy
[Intro]
x2
[Verse 1]
As I listen to the breeze tonight, This warm and lonely night;
I feel I m drifting back in time, To things that weren t but might.
Can you hear the wind that that howls⦠It calls your name aloud.
Can you answer where you re going? I can t answer now.
[Chorus]
Like a kite above the clouds, With no hand to hold,
No string to tie it to the ground, It s flight so uncontrolled,
It s flight so uncontrolled
[Verse 2]
First I flutter then I climb And just as quick I fall.
This breeze it not a steady wind; Much more it s like a squall.
Sure I ll make it back to earth; I just don t know how
I know that I can t trust the wind; But it s all that holds me now. cause
[Chorus]
Like a kite above the clouds, With no hand to hold,
No string to tie it to the ground, It s flight so uncontrolled,
It s flight so uncontrolled
[Verse 3]
I wish a hand could catch the string; Gently bring me back.
Just a hand to guide me down, My heart - don t let it crack.
I belong to the here and now, Not drifting somewhere else.
I belong with you my friend, Back in time I can t dwell.
[Chorus]
Like a kite above the clouds, With no hand to hold,
No string to tie it to the ground, It s flight so uncontrolled,
It s flight so uncontrolled
[Chorus]
Catch the string and don t let go, Your strength is against the wind.
Hold the string and don t let go, And I will be your friend.
And I will be your friend.
[Outro]
And I will be
Your friend
