Can I get your hand to write on
Just a piece of leg to bite on
What a night to fly my kite on
Do you want to flash your light on?

Take a look, it's on display for you
Coming down, no, not today

Did you meet your fortune teller
Get it off with no propeller
Do it up, it's on with Stella
What a way to finally smell her

Pick it up, but not too strong for you
Take a piece and pass it on

Fly away on my zephyr
I feel it more than ever
And in this perfect weather
We'll find a place together

Fly on my wind
Rebel and a liberator
Find a way to be a skater
Rev it up to levitate her
Super friendly aviator

Take a look, it's on display for you
Coming down, no, not today

Fly away on my zephyr
I feel it more than ever
And in this perfect weather
We'll find a place together

In the water, where I center my emotion
All the world can pass me by
Fly away on my zephyr
We'll find a place together

(Whoa) whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, do you
(Yeah) yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Whoa) whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, want to?
(Yeah) yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Fly away on my zephyr
I feel it more than ever
And in this perfect weather
We'll find a place together

In the water where I center my emotion
All the world can pass me by
Fly away on my zephyr
We're gonna live forever

Forever

    Can I get your hand to write on Just a piece of lead to bite on What am I to fly my kite on Do you want to flash your light on

    I think that atleast is about needing something to hold on to, to help you through something. Leaving a light on is supposed to let you get home. a String is why you fly a kite with (hold onto it with), Lead is a soft metal, so isnt good to bite on (people bite on things when going through pain, etc...). The hand to write on, using someone elses hand to write on would be writing your number...

    I think the chorus is just about letting go... Just finding a place to be happy, to get away from your problems and the world.
