If I Can Dream

There must be lights
Burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher
In a sky more blue

If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Oh why (Tell me why)
Oh, why can't my dream come true?
Oh, why?

There must be peace
And understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise
That will blow away the doubt and fear

If I can dream of a warmer Sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Oh why (Tell me why)
Oh, why won't that Sun appear?

We're lost in a cloud
With too much rain
We're trapped in a world
That's troubled with pain
But as long as a man
Has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly
(He can fly)

Deep in my heart
There's a trembling question
Still, I am sure that the answer's
Gonna come somehow

Out there in the dark
(Out there in the dark)
There's a beckoning candle
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And while I can think
While I can talk
While I can stand
While I can walk
While I can dream
Please let my dream
Come true
Woah-oh, woah-oh
Right now (Please)
Let it come true right now
(While I can dream)
(If I can dream)
Right now
