If I Can Dream (Live from the '68 Comeback Special)

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, oh why Verse 2 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 on everyone Tell me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear Verse 3 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 Verse 4 Deep in my heart there's a trembling question Still I am sure that the answers Answers gonna come somehow Out there in the dark There's a beckoning 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
