Touch the bottom of the pool
So, don't be afraid to cry get down as far as you can go
I let my mind play tricks and then
Let the river rage on by and the wind blow
Let yourself go under
I invite the blues to come around
When I get knocked to the ground
I go ahead and cry the make-up from my eyes
And I'm back to my old self
'Cause a deep down low makes level feel so high
If you pay your dues in darkness, you'll appreciate the light
So, don't be afraid to cry get down as far as you can go
Into thinkin' that I'll never be alright
I realize how good I've always felt
If you pay your dues in darkness, you'll appreciate the light
Ain't it strange and don't you wonder
I'm a happy woman but
How you always come back up and it's so cool
Let the river rage on by and the wind blow
So, don't be afraid to cry get down as far as you can go
I put on the saddest song ignore the telephone
I let it fool me once again
'Cause a deep down low makes level feel so high
I kept endin' up in that forbidden place
Then when I'm no longer crazy
Well I did that for a while but it just was not my style
Let the river rage on by and the wind blow
'Cause a deep down low makes level feel so high
If you pay your dues in darkness, you'll appreciate the light
