Let me loose -
to fly alone in the air,
but hold tight the tie that binds
Let the wind hoist me up,
it's ruffles lightly carry me,
to be billowed by invisible undulating
waves, weightless,
the sun on my shoulders
I want to know
how it feels to float -
without everyday cares
Watch me soar in the sky,
twist and turn everywhere,
burdens lifted and without fear,
flying freely for awhile
lift me up so I can see the view,
how far I want to go
Let me fly like a kite,
keep company with birds,
but keep me tethered to your hand
I'm not ready to leave you yet
Rein me in after I sail;
when I am sate, I will land -
grateful for everything,
yet all the more will I
appreciate
