Light as a Feather
[Intro: melodic Holler motif] [Verse 1: Darlene female] She said that love was like a feather Soft enough to float on air Yet somehow it could fill a crowded room And settle gently everywhere [Chorus: Bubba mature male and Darlene unmistakably female] Light as a feather, steady as the sun Mercy doesn't need to fight to overcome There's room for tears and trembling hands For a frightened heart that stands And love can fill the room tonight Without demanding any light [Verse 2: Bubba male] He took the stage with shaking fingers Even while his thoughts said run The courage wasn't never feeling fear It was doing what he'd come to do [Bridge: duet] Let the kindness have a doorway Let forgiveness take its place Let the quiet be a blessing [Final Chorus: swelling full band, duet] Light as a feather, steady as the sun Mercy doesn't need to fight to overcome There's room for tears and trembling hands For a frightened heart that stands And love can fill the room tonight Without demanding any light [Outro: instrumental resolve, no abrupt cutoff]
