How Deep in the Valley


"How deep in the valley must you go
to find what your footsteps already know?
The way on is the way out, there are signs to follow
there is deep in the valley and I'm bound to go
How deep in the valley must you stay
to know why your footsteps led you that way?
The way on may be truly to stand in one place
and the let the deep of the valley fill you with grace

Treat yourself lightly, treat yourself kind
you got nothing to worry on, you will be fine
you will leave this place laughing
and somebody will cry
there is deep in the valley, wonder not why

Wonder not why go and wonder not to stay
if it takes me and I follow or if I lead the way
it can come when it wants to but it might have to wait
there is deep in the valley, I don't hesitate

I don't take it too lightly
but it don't weigh down too low
there is high on the clifftop
and there's deep creeks below
there's a green shade you can't miss
where the spring water flows
there is deep in the valley
and I'm bound to go"
