Fuck those crowing crows, nicotine stains my throat
On a slow moving boat, I move, looking for you
And down the river along the sea
Up in the sky a big black kite follows
Stranger with skin pale as the moon
Who woke me in my hotel room
On my made connection to an unknown world
I'm hoping to find you
Down the mountain, pear and apple trees
Up in the breeze, a big black sheet falling
Empty park so lifeless and quiet, walk it every day
On my way to Chinatown to buy presents for my love
Black kite black kite black kite
Telephone beside my bed, will it ever ring?
Paper laying at my door, air outside the window
Black kite black kite black kite
