About The Song
“If I Can Dream” is a song recorded by Elvis Presley in 1968, written by Walter Earl Brown. It was released as the closing number on Presley’s television special, the ’68 Comeback Special. The song is a plea for peace, understanding, and brotherhood, and it was inspired by the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. just two months earlier.
The song’s lyrics speak of a world where there is no hatred, violence, or division. Presley sings of a time when “all my brothers walk hand in hand” and when there is “peace and understanding sometime.” He also sings of a “warmer sun” that will shine on everyone and a “beckoning candle” that will guide us through the darkness.
The song’s message of hope and unity is as relevant today as it was in 1968. It is a reminder that we all have the power to make the world a better place, and that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope for a brighter future.

Lyrics
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’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… right now
Let it come true right now
Oh, yeah
