I have been a fan of Michael W. Smith for several years, ever since I was in my first youth group. When I bought his "First Decade" album, I wasn't intending to find a P/T song. I had bought the album because it had "Secret Ambition" on it. But included among the songs from other albums were two new songs: "Kentucky Rose" and "Do You Dream of Me?" The latter has proved to be an awesome P/T song. Thank you, Smitty, even though I don't think you were thinking of P/T when you wrote the song.
"Do You Dream of Me?"
by Michael W. Smith
(from "The First Decade--1983-1993" album released by Reunion, 1993)
"Dreams--within the still of night
On wings of hope take flight
inside of me
There, upon some distant shore
We want for nothing more
than what will be.
And you and I, here we are
I wonder as we've come this far....
Chorus:
If I could only read your mind,
tell me the answer I would find
Do you dream of me?
And when you're smiling in your sleep
beyond the promises we keep--
do you dream of me?
Love has found a magic space
A deep and hidden place
where time stands still
Now I hold you in my arms
You know you hold my heart--
and always will.
And you and I, here we are
and it's a wonder that we've come this far....
And after all that we've been through--
You've leaned on me, I've leaned on you
Do you dream of me?
And when you're smiling in your sleep
beyond the promises we keep--
do you dream of me?
(Repeat chorus)
