If I Can Dream Lyrics
Walter 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
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 shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why wont that sun appear
Were lost in a cloud
With too much rain
Were 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 tremblin question
Still I am sure that the answer 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, please let my dream
Come true, ohhhhh, right now
Let it come true right now
Oh yeah
PS: Adoro esta canção interpretada pelo Rei do Rock, gravada em 1968, pouco depois do assassinato do líder King e do presidenciável Bob Kennedy. Pela interpretação forte, emocionante, inspiradora do ponto de vista religioso e político, como voz de protesto e de apelo à concórdia humana. Continuamos precisando de novos hinos pacifistas apesar de todos os avanços.
