Chris Rice Lyrics
"Deep Enough To Dream"

Lazy summer afternoon,
Screened in porch and nothin' to do.
I just kicked off my tennis shoes.
I'm Slouchin' in a plastic chair.
I'm Rakin' my fingers through my hair.
I close my eyes and I leave them there.
And I yawn, and sigh, and slowly fade away.

Deep enough to dream in brilliant colors I have never seen.
Deep enough to join a billion people for a wedding feast.
Deep enough to reach out and touch
The face of the One who made me.
And oh, the love I feel, and oh the peace.
Do I ever have to wake up?

Awakened by a familiar sound.
A clumsy fly is buzzin' around.
He bumps the screen and he tumbles down.
He gathers about his wits and pride
And tries again for the hundredth time,
'Cause freedom calls from the other side.
And I smile and nod, and slowly drift away.

Deep enough to dream in brilliant colors I have never seen.
Deep enough to join a billion people for a wedding feast.
Deep enough to reach out and touch
The face of the One who made me.
And oh, the love I feel, and oh the peace.
Do I ever have to wake up?

'Cause peace is pouring over my soul.
See the lambs and the lions playin'.
I join in and I drink the music.
Holiness is the air I'm breathin'.
My faithful heroes break the bread,
And answer all of my questions.
Not to mention what the streets are made of.
My heart's held hostage by this love.

And these brilliant colors I have never seen
I join a billion people for a wedding feast
And I reach out and touch the face of the One who made me

Deep enough to dream in brilliant colors I have never seen.
Deep enough to join a billion people for a wedding feast.
Deep enough to reach out and touch
The face of the One who made me.
And oh, the love I feel, and oh the peace.
Do I ever have to wake up?

Do I ever have to wake up?
Do I really have to wake up now?
