Make me a kite, Beloved, and set me free,
Make me a kite, Beloved, and set me free.
To heavens high, Beloved, carry me,
To heavens high, Beloved, carry me.

I'll bind you with love's silken thread, my Love,
I'll bind you with love's silken thread, my Love.
To heights beyond the skies, I'll lift you up, my Love,
To heights beyond the skies, I'll lift you up, my Love.
Make me a kite, Beloved, and set me free.

You pull the string, and I draw near,
You loosen it, and I retreat in fear.
You pull the string, and I draw near,
You loosen it, and I retreat in fear.
Come, the twist, come, the fight,
Let's entangle our hearts, my Love, in the sky's light.
Let's entangle our hearts, my Love, in the sky's light.
To heights beyond the skies, I'll lift you up, my Love,
To heights beyond the skies, I'll lift you up, my Love.
Make me a kite, Beloved, and set me free.

Cut here, cut there, the threads they sever,
Give slack, give slack, forever and ever.
Cut here, cut there, the threads they sever,
Give slack, give slack, forever and ever.
See, her kite is cut, it falls from grace,
See, her kite is cut, it falls from grace.

I'll dance you to my fingertips,
To moon and stars, your heart I'll slip.
I'll dance you to my fingertips,
To moon and stars, your heart I'll slip.
Enough talk, enough talk,
Don't weave more tales, Beloved, in your walk.
Don't weave more tales, Beloved, in your walk.
To heavens high, Beloved, carry me,
To heavens high, Beloved, carry me.
I'll bind you with love's silken thread, my Love,

If I should fall, if threads are torn,
And in another's hands I'm worn,
I couldn't live, parted from you,
Before that pain, my life, I'd scorn.
Speak no such words, speak no such plea,
Speak no such words, let them not be.
How would I live without you, my Love?
How would I live without you, my Love?

Make me a kite, Beloved, and set me free,
Make me a kite, Beloved, and set me free.
To heavens high, Beloved, carry me,
To heavens high, Beloved, carry me.
