Deeper, deeper, dig, dig deeper, deeper

Get a little closer
You don't have to be afraid
You have to trust your inner pilot
Don't let it drift away

Dig a little deeper
You gotta get it in your soul
Reach out with your spirit
And let your feelings show

Deeper, deeper, dig, dig deeper, deeper

You can't deny the feeling
That touches you inside
When you're tired and lonely
You don't have to lose your pride

Take the time to listen
Stay a little while
Got a song to sing for you
Let the music get you higher, higher

Carlos Augusto Alves Santana (born July 20, 1947 in Autlán de Navarro, Jalisco) is a Mexican and American musician who became famous in the late 1960s and early 1970s with his band, Santana, which pioneered a fusion of rock and Latin American music. Carlos prefers to only play and leave lead vocals to guest singers. The band’s sound featured his melodic, blues-based guitar lines set against Latin and African rhythms featuring percussion instruments such as timbales and congas not generally heard in rock music. He experienced a resurgence of popularity and critical acclaim in the late 1990s. In 2003 Rolling Stone magazine listed Santana at number 20 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. He has won ten Grammy Awards and three Latin Grammy Awards.
