|
I would take no for an answer, |
|
Just to know I heard you speak, |
|
And I'm wondering why I've never, |
|
Seen the signs they claim they see, |
|
A lotta special revelations, |
|
Meant for everybody but me, |
|
Maybe I don't truly know You, |
|
or maybe I just simply believe... |
|
Chorus: Cause I can sniff, I can see, and I can |
|
count up pretty high; but these faculties |
|
aren't getting me any closer to the sky, |
|
but my heart of faith keeps poundin' so |
|
I know I'm doin' fine but sometimes findin |
|
you is just like tryin to smell the color nine. |
|
Smell the color nine... |
|
Now I've never felt the presence, |
|
But I know You're always near, |
|
And I've never heard the calling, |
|
But somehow You've led me right here, |
|
So I'm not lookin' for burnin' bushes, |
|
Or some Divine graffiti to appear, |
|
I'm just beggin You for Your wisdom, |
|
And I believe You're puttin' some here... |
|
Chorus |
|
(ah's and do's) |
|
Chorus (repeat) |
|
Nine's not a color... |
|
and if even if it was you can't smell a color,no |
|
that's my point exactly. |
|
do do do do do do do (repeat) |
