Young and Free

Flying high
Couldn't be more true
Heres to you and I
And all the kites we flew
Some flew high and out of control
But we never dreamed of letting go
Some so big and down to earth
But we kept sailing for all we were worth
Sometime the wind just wouldn't agree
But still our young spirits soared ever free
Living on the edge and oh the chances
More than once we climbed down from the branches
I often think back to those care free days
And the fun we had in our own special ways
The breeze that blew still blows today
Just wish all our kites hadn't drifted away
I'll treasure that time alone with you
So heres to us and all the kites we flew
