Lyrics
[Verse 1] You drew a compass on your paper kite With four blue arrows and a crooked line We took it running past the soccer field To find the wind that made the whole thing wheel [Pre-Chorus] You said, “The sky is bigger when we try” I felt the answer tugging from the side [Chorus] Send me where the high clouds turn Where the open currents twist and burn I’ll follow every silver thread Above the grass, above my head If we lose the path, we’ll make it new There’s a world of blue to travel through [Verse 2] The string went humming through your steady hands The kite climbed over rooftops, trees, and stands A flock of starlings scattered like a fan You laughed and pointed, “There we go again” [Pre-Chorus] No map can hold the shape of getting free The best direction starts beneath your feet [Chorus] Send me where the high clouds turn Where the open currents twist and burn I’ll follow every silver thread Above the grass, above my head If we lose the path, we’ll make it new There’s a world of blue to travel through [Bridge] And when the line goes slack against the sun We’ll tie a brighter ribbon, one by one No finish line can tell us where to land The sky keeps widening beyond our hands [Final Chorus] Send me where the high clouds turn Where the open currents twist and burn I’ll follow every silver thread Above the grass, above my head If we lose the path, we’ll make it new There’s a world of blue to travel through [Outro] There’s a world of blue Still opening to you
