"Like A Feather" by Nikka Costa

I'm coming out of my wishing well
Where only echos lonely hear my prayers
I'm coming around to bending
'Cause my resistance been far too persistant
I've come too far to force it
So I'll just 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

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
Tonight I'm taking on catastrophe
I'd rather take it easy
Than try to force what's on it's 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

We're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too far
The light behind that we free will blind other stars
But the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far
So get ready to be

We're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too far
The light behind that we free will blind other stars
But the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far
It's who you are
