There must be lights
burnin' 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
Oh why
Oh why won't my dream
come true oh why
There must be peace
and understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise
That will blow away
all the doubt and fear
If I can dream
of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shinin'
on everyone
Tell me why
Oh 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
Deep in my heart
There's a trembling question
Still I am sure
that the answer's
The answer's gonna come
somehow
Out there in the dark
There's a beckoning candle
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
Oh oh oh
Right now
Let it come true
Right now
Oh yeah
