If I Can Dream
I know there are lights burning brither somewhere.
I know there are birds flying higher in the sky more blue.
If a man can dream of a better land where all his brothers walk hand in hand.
Lord, tell me why, oh why, oh why can't their dream come true?
I know there is peace and understanding sometime.
Strong winds of promise that will blow away the doubt and fear.
If the man can dream of a warmer sun where hope keeps shining on everyone,
tell me why, oh Lord please tell me why, why won't that sun appear?
Man is lost in a cloud and there is too much rain.
Man is trapped in a world that's troubled with pain
But as long as a man has the strength enough to dream, he can redeem his soul, he can redeem his soul and fly.
Deep in my heart, Father, I have this trembling question.
Still I am sure that the answer gonna come somehow.
Because out there in the dark, there's always a beckoning candle.
And while man can think, while can talk
While he can stand, while he can walk
While he can dream, feeling his dream...
Lord, Lord let it come true,
Let the man's dream come true right now
I am asking you right now
Would You do it, please? Right now
He needs you right now
Oh right now, right now,
Oh do it right now?
I know there are birds flying higher in the sky more blue.
If a man can dream of a better land where all his brothers walk hand in hand.
Lord, tell me why, oh why, oh why can't their dream come true?
I know there is peace and understanding sometime.
Strong winds of promise that will blow away the doubt and fear.
If the man can dream of a warmer sun where hope keeps shining on everyone,
tell me why, oh Lord please tell me why, why won't that sun appear?
Man is lost in a cloud and there is too much rain.
Man is trapped in a world that's troubled with pain
But as long as a man has the strength enough to dream, he can redeem his soul, he can redeem his soul and fly.
Deep in my heart, Father, I have this trembling question.
Still I am sure that the answer gonna come somehow.
Because out there in the dark, there's always a beckoning candle.
And while man can think, while can talk
While he can stand, while he can walk
While he can dream, feeling his dream...
Lord, Lord let it come true,
Let the man's dream come true right now
I am asking you right now
Would You do it, please? Right now
He needs you right now
Oh right now, right now,
Oh do it right now?
