Dan Fogelberg - Below The Surface Lyrics

Some people tell you they're 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

[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
