Like a Feather Lyrics
I'm coming out of my wishing well
Where only echoes lonely hear my prayers
I'm coming around to bending
Cause my resistance been too far persistant
I've come too far to force it so I'll watch it slide and land
(Chorus)
And when I set free like a feather it will be
And when I rise to see it done like whatever it will be it will be
I'm taking a breather baby
From sitting on pins waiting for my sky to fal
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 it's way to me
Chorus
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
Who are
Where only echoes lonely hear my prayers
I'm coming around to bending
Cause my resistance been too far persistant
I've come too far to force it so I'll watch it slide and land
And when I set free like a feather it will be
And when I rise to see it done like whatever it will be it will be
From sitting on pins waiting for my sky to fal
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 it's way to me
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
Who are

Umm. I'm not sure exactly what this song is about. Perhaps it's due to my hunger. lol
Anyway, this song's got a great beat. I love Nikka's upbeat songs. :)
To me.. this song symbolizes "going with the flow". The artist has struggled far too often, and realized possibilities only happen when you let things be like they are, "like whatever it will be it will be."
Instead of trying so hard for something to work, if something is meant to be .. it will: "I'd rather take it easy, then try to force what's on it's way to me."
And yes.. this song has a great beat. I love Nikka Costa. She's so.. not everyone else.
i agree, smart thinkin 99' or forky fork if you will, gotta love that funky nikka
