Griffin, Patty - Kite Song Lyrics
The Sunday after there was laughter in the air
Everybody had a kite
They were flying everywhere
And all the trouble went away
And it wasn't just a dream
And it wasn't just a dream
In the middle of the night
We try and try with all our mights
To light a little light down here
In the middle of the night
We dream of a million kites
Flying high above
The sadness and the fear
As you wander through the blue
The little kite that you sent flying
On a sunny afternoon
Made of something light as nothing
Made of joy that matters too
How the little dreams we dream
Are all we can really do
In the middle of the night
The world turns with all of it's might
A little diamond colored blue
In the middle of the night
We keep sending little kites
Until a little light gets through

Griffin, Patty Kite Song Comments
I played this song after my best friend in the whole world died. I had her for nineteen years and love her more then life. Her name was Ruby and she was born under my aunt's bed. She was a litter of four and I choose her. I now have her ashes and when it's my time my daughter is to combine our ashe and let us float away out to sea
This song is a gift from God.
I like this song so much my teacher disided we are going to sing it to the whole school and the other classes will be singing something else but I think this song will be the best out of the whole entirer school
That's cool how you did the seasons in this video:)
Sorry for the late reply. I did it with Flash, you use a code, then transferred to video.

I miss Joan of Arcadia

Magnificent song.
too sad
Oh my god this song and video are gorgeous! Just beyond words!!! ♥
Never forget the first time I heard this song, on my ipod on a crowded london train. Couldnt stop the tears though, something deep and emotional about it.
Lovely~!
Patty is one of the most talented songwriters working today. I dare anyone to not be moved by this song.
Does anyone know where I can find a Karaoke version for this???
Beautiful, beautiful song. Fittingly so is your video, thank you for this new discovery!
This is the song I've listened to for months after my 12 year old cousin passed away it really helped
O thanks very much. Glad you enjoyed your yoga retreat! I used Gimp to edit the pictures and Flash 8 to make the video and then Moyea SWF to Video converter to turn it into a video.
Just spent a weekend camping at a yoga retreat, where we all came together to celebrate life. On the way home, my iPod played this, and I had forgotten how absolutely amazing Patty Griffin is. A truly talented songwriter. This song conveys in just a few short minutes some of the most profound themes for life. What a joy to rediscover. Also, the video have made here is truly special. May I ask what application you used to edit it together?
I'm awfully sorry for your loss. I wish you and your family the best...thanks for posting...
Thanks for asking. He died from a rare disease called Dandy Walker Syndrome. Not a day goes by that we don't remember him. "We keep sending little kites until a little light gets through".
you're welcome, gosh, I'm deeply sorry about your son, may I ask what happened to him that caused his death?
Thank you for posting this. I listened to this song dozens of times the day after we lost our son. It comforted my wife and me and somehow helped us through the pain. To me, the song is about grief and weathering the storm that is life. "The little dreams we dream are all that we can really do". Thank you Patty for this gift of a song.
she is pure magic. nice video
Thanks a bunch!
Fantastic video! Well done :)
You're welcome! Thanks for the kind comment!
