There must b e lights burning brighter somewhere,
Got to b e birds fly ing higher in a sk y more blue.
If I ca n dream o f a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand,
Tell m e why, oh 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 everyone
Tell m e why, oh why, oh why won' t that sun appear?
We're lost in a clo ud with too much rain,
We're trapped i n a wo rld that's troubl ed with pain,
But as long as a man has the stren gth to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly, (he can fly)
Deep in m y heart there 's a tre mbling q uestion,
Still I a m sure that the answer, answer's going to come so mehow.
Out there in the dark there's a be ckoning candle,
o yeah,
And while I can think, whil e I can talk,
While I c an stand, while I can walk,
While I c an dream,
Oh please let my dream
Come true.
Right now , let it come t rue now!
O yeah!
