Re-post: ~How deep can you feel?~ Norm Strauss

Another favorite song.
Reminds me of discovery, of memoir.

To the journey...



"How Deep Can You Feel"
lyrics & music by
Norm Strauss

It's all in how you look at it,
she said,
as if there were a hundred ways to walk a high wire.
You wanna try to let it go,
close your eyes now and let your heart rule your head sometime.

Some folks dig for gold and only scratch the surface
But you saw somethin' more; it's makin' you nervous

How deep can you feel?
Can you really let this get to you?
How far can your soul go?
Can you really change your point of view?
Let the best of you become undone,
look past your logic and all that other noise...

You're always looking for the answers,
she said,
but sometimes it's all about the questioning.
You never seem to let it show;
that's alright 'cause I know
your heart is a deep, deep well.


Some folks dig for gold and only scratch the surface
But sometimes a mystery can have another purpose

How deep can you feel?
Can you really let this get to you?
How far can your soul go?
Can you really change your point of view?
Let the best of you become undone,
look past your logic and all that other noise....

When your stream becomes a raging river boy
When your gray becomes a deeper shade of blue
What will ya' do

Some folks dig for gold and only scratch the surface
But you saw somethin' more; it's makin' you nervous

How deep can you feel?
Can you really let this get to you?
How far can your soul go?
Can you really change your point of view?

How deep can you feel?
Can you really let this get to you?
How far can your soul go?
Can you really change your point of view?

Let the best of you become undone,
look past your logic and all that other noise....

Glad you like it Jon. :)

A gal named Karen McGrath turned me onto this song. Unfortunately Karen lost her battle with cancer this past July. She is missed.
