paroles de chanson Kites and Children - Anika Noni Rose

I stand behind you, not too close, not too far away
I feel the wind, it whispers things I dare not say
We know the truth about how hard it is to make things fly
The kite and I

You're carried forward, first a step, then a gentle run
You don't look back, at once the distance has begun
I turn my head, and just like that you're nearly out of view
The kite and you

They tell me there's a storm a-comin'
They tell me that I'm holding on tight to these strings
But I know about kites and children
And all that they need is air and wings

Air and wings
Ooh

There is a secret that one day everybody learns
Each path you choose will shock you with its twists and turns
You may forget just how it felt to be so young and free
With kites and me

I won't pretend that I don't see the darkened skies
But when it rains, I figure we just improvise
You shine like sunlight
There's nothing in this world you cannot do
You've got air
You've got wings
I've got you

They tell me there's a storm a-comin'
They tell me that I'm holding on tight to these strings
But I know about kites and children
And all that they need is air and wings

They tell me there's a storm a-comin'
They tell me that I'm holding on tight to these strings
But I know about kites and children
And all that they need
Yes all that they need is air and wings
