Kites Without Strings (Live 2/13/96)

[Verse 1]
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 taut
But never learned a thing

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Is it any wonder I hit solid ground?
When I did I fell on the ground
So hard
Was it on a blunder, or were all those years
I spent in the clouds heaven-sent?
Gotta learn to walk before you run
Flew before you learned either one

[Chorus]
Now you're gone
You're gone
Now you're gone
You're gone

[Verse 2]
Tangled in blue
I aimed for the wild you
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

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Can't fly away from who you are
You tried, and you drifted way too far

[Chorus]
Now you're gone
You're gone
Now you're gone
You're gone

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Flying on the ground is always wrong
Let it go, but you kept holding on, and on, and on

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
Now you're gone
You're gone
Now you're gone
You're gone
