BELOW THE SURFACE
Dan Fogelberg - 1975


Some people tell you they're trapped by the distance 
And can't get what they want most 
They throw a wall and then call for assistance 
And make no attempt to get close 

(Chorus) 
Oh, I think you should know 
You've got to go slow below the surface 
And easy through the waves 
You better go slow below the surface 
And easy through the waves 

You're running so fast that you can't find the past 
And your future is wearing thin 
Come from behind it's a matter of time 
'Til you see where you've always been 

(Chorus) 

Some people tell you they're in trapped by the distance 
And can't get what they want most 
They throw up a wall and then call for assistance 
And make no attempt to get close 
Oh, I think you should know 
You've better go slow below the surface 
And easy through the waves 
You better go slow below the surface 
And easy through the waves 

You know that your life must have a purpose 
You better make a stand while you still can
