There must be lights burnin' brighter somewhere Got to be birds flyin' 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, 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 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 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'm sure that the answer, answer's gonna come somehow Out there in the dark There's a reckoning candle, yeah And while I can think, while I can talk While I can stand, while I can walk While I can dream Oh, please let my dream come true Right now, let it come true right now Oh, yeah Thank you, good night
