I think the meaning is pretty straightfoward. The narrator is tired of life and stress. So she wishes she were a kite so she could fly and not have worries...somehow, her wish is granted, and though at first she likes her new life as a kite, she soon realizes she's completely out of her element; she's a fish out of water, and she longs for the safe ground again.
A lot of meanings flowing around in this very allegorical song.
I agree. I love this song.
