Copeland - Kite
I hid myself from failure and fear.
Oh my dear you're a threat to the bad in us all.
They tell themselves that each word from your lips
or the grace in your eyes overcomes any fall.
All through the twilight you're listening for me.
Darling go to sleep.
Cradled by moonlight I'm dreaming we'll be
love so deep.
Floating and fighting like a kite on a string
'til you cut through my tether and changed everything.
From the sky you looked small but I loved you the same,
so I darted back quickly to spell out your name.
And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite,
you'll tell them you're proud of my marvelous flight.
Don't hide yourself inside 'til I'm home.
Oh my dear you're a threat to the bad we all see.
I'm beside myself for the touch of your lips
Or the grace of your eyes that can see good in me.
All through the twilight you're listening for me.
Darling go to sleep.
Cradled by moonlight I'm dreaming we'll be
love so deep.
Floating and fighting like a kite on a string
'til you cut through my tether and changed everything.
From the sky you looked small but I loved you the same,
so I darted back quickly to spell out your name.
And when they say that I'm just a terrible kite,
you'll tell them you're proud of my marvelous flight.

RIP Copeland. I actually just realized how beautiful this song is a few days ago and thought that I should share it here. Of course now it's for an entirely different reason. But it's still a good song anyway.
