lyrics

V1
Hello my friends,
I’ve gathered you here,
Just to take stock of what I’ve got
Because I don’t know when I’ll see you again

V2
Hello my beauty,
Hello my Rose.
It’s been a long road that we’ve been on
And my dear now you’ll go it alone.

CHORUS
Fly the black kite,
Drop the goddamn bomb.
Remember my face as you’re turning in place,
Coz its all you’ll have when I’m gone.

V3
Hello my son,
What have you become?
And what will you be in a world without me,
A hero or a man on the run?

V4
Hello my daughter,
Will you be your own author?
Will you write your life down in black and white,
Or will you let your story be spun?

CHORUS
Fly the black kite,
Drop the goddamn bomb.
Remember my face as you’re turning in place,
Coz its all you’ll have when I’m gone.

V5
Hello My lover,
I’m sorry its over
If I could re-write the past and make this love last,
Then what would become of my son?
What becomes of my son?
What would become of my son?

CHORUS
Fly the black kite,
Drop the goddamn bomb.
Remember my face as you’re turning in place,
Coz its all you’ll have when I’m gone.

CHORUS
Fly the black kite,
Drop the goddamn bomb.
Remember my face as you’re turning in place,
Coz its all you’ll have when I’m gone.
It's all you'll have when I'm gone.
It's all you'll have when I'm gone.
