If I can dream
Words & Music by W. Earl Brown 

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, oh why, oh why can‘t my dream come true

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 shining 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 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, right now
 Let it come true right now
 Oh yeah
