feather

Listen: like a feather - Nikka Costa

 

I'm coming out of my wishing well where only echoes lonely hear my prayers

I'm coming around to bend cause my resistance been to persistent

I've come to far to force it so I'll watch it slide and land

I could come on strong and willful but

I'd rather watch it fall to the palm of my hand

 

and when I set it free like a feather it will be

and when I rise to see it done like whatever it will be, it will be, it will be, yeah

 

I'm taking a breather baby from sitting on pins waiting for my sky to fall

I'm taking up giving in so here's the wheel, I'm putting my feet up

take another look at me baby today I'm taking on catastrophe

I'd rather take it easy then try to force what's on its way to me

 

and when I set it free like a feather it will be

and when I rise to see it done like whatever it will be, it will be, it will be, yeah yeah

 

we're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too far

the lights behind that we free will blind other stars

but the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far

so get ready to be

who you are

 

Thanks Tomis :-)
