Dig Down Deep

Have you ever been stuck on a song where that is that only song that you want to hear and you listen to it over and over again until the words constantly play through your head? Well guess what, I do and right now I am stuck on a song that had been around for awhile but I had never heard it.
About 5 yrs ago a friend made be a tape of songs (I think we have all done that at least once in out life time) and this song "Dig Down Deep" was on there. Now I listened to it a few times but never really paid all that much attention to it, but lately that is the only song that I want to listen to. I love it, the whole song, everthing about it, and it has great feeling to it. If you have never heard it before, the lyrics are listed below but I suggest you listen to it.

Dig Down Deep
Baby let’s go below the surface
See what we can find
There’s no reason to be nervous
‘Cause it happens all the time
I don’t want to go up to the mountain

I don’t need to go down to the sea
Gonna sit right here ‘till we unravel The mystery
While the lights of the city Are shining below

Gonna hold onto you girl And never let go
While everyone else is just walking around In their sleep
Baby let’s dig down Dig down deep
I wanna dig down deep
And I don’t wanna wait until tomorrow

‘Cause the fortune said that “The time is now”
It’s time to find out what we’re doing
What we’re doing anyhow
Let’s go out in the moonlight

And walk for awhile
Maybe stay up all night and we could Talk for awhile
Kick off your shoes ‘Cause you’ve got nothing to lose But your sleep
Baby let’s dig down Dig down deep
I wanna dig down deep
It’s an open invitation

So baby don’t you cry
It’s a life long celebration
And I think we’re right on time
It’s a feeling in your heart
And a lump in the throat
It’s a strange and lovely ride
Wanna dig down deep inside
While the lights of the city Are shining below

Gonna hold onto you girl And never let go
While everyone else is just walking around In their sleep
Baby let’s dig down Dig down deep
I wanna dig down deep
Could you dig down deep

I wanna dig down deep
