high (with the kites)

Verse 1

Woke up sideways, ceiling turning

Something's lit and something's burning

Got a string tied round my finger

Just to keep me on the ground tonight

Verse 2

Sweet Louise she rolled me over

Said "you're miles away, come closer"

But my mind's already floating

Somewhere up above the town tonight

[Pre-Chorus[

Reel me in, reel me in

Before I drift too far again

Chorus

'Cause I'm high, high, with the kites

Head up in the clouds, lost the string tonight

Nothing holding on, nothing feels quite right

I'm high, high, with the kites

Verse 3

Take a little, pass it over

Nothing chases like the four-leaf clover

Watch the smoke rings chase the pigeons

Round the chimney pots tonight

Pre-Chorus

Reel me in, reel me in

Before I drift too far again

Chorus

'Cause I'm high, high, with the kites

Head up in the clouds, lost the string tonight

Nothing holding on, nothing feels quite right

I'm high, high, with the kites

Bridge

Some men chase the money

Some men chase the sun

I just chase the feeling

Till the feeling's come and gone

Ooh — gone, gone, gone...

Final Chorus

Now I'm high, high, with the kites

String's already broken, lost it in the light

Don't come looking for me, I'll be up all night

I'm high, high — with the kites

Ooh, with the kites

Ooh, with the kites

Outro

Way up, way up, where the string don't reach...

Way up, way up, nothing left to teach me...

With the kites...
