Smell The Color 9 Lyrics - Singles - Chris Rice

I would take no for an answer 

Just to know I heard You speak 

And I'm wonderin' why I've never 

Seen the signs they claim they see 

Are the special revelations 

Meant for everbody but me? 

Maybe I don't truly know You 

Or maybe I just simply believe 

'Cause I can sniff, I can see 

And I can count up pretty high 

But these faculties aren't getting me 

Any close to the sky 

But my heart of faith keeps poundin' 

So I know I'm doin' fine 

But sometimes finding You 

Is just like trying to smell the color 9 

Smell the color 9 

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 lead me right here 

So I'm not looking for burning bushes 

Or some divine graffiti to appear 

I'm just begging You for Your wisdom 

And believe You're putting some here 

'Cause I can sniff, I can see 

And I can count up pretty high 

But these faculties aren't getting me 

Any close to the sky 

But my heart of faith keeps poundin' 

So I know I'm doin' fine 

But sometimes finding You 

Is just like trying to smell the color 9 

I can sniff, I can see 

And I can count up pretty high 

But these faculties aren't getting me 

Any close to the sky 

But my heart of faith keeps poundin' 

So I know I'm doin' fine 

But sometimes finding You 

Is just like trying to 

Well I can sniff, I can see 

And I can count up pretty high 

But these faculties aren't getting me 

Any close to the sky 

But my heart of faith keeps poundin' 

So I know I'm doin' fine 

But sometimes finding You 

Is just like trying to 

Sometimes finding You 

Is just like trying to 

Sometimes finding You 

Is just like trying to smell the color 9 

Smell the color 9 

9's not a color 

And even if it were you can't smell a color, no 

That's my point exactly
