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 whyStories Collected While Living in France
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 whyOK, this got my juices going. Thanks!
I loved having the words to sing along.
And no one to hear me. That was fun.
I was never an Elvis fan, but this song is wonderful. I understand he recorded it just after MLK was assasinated and RFK was killed. He felt very strongly about both men. Perfect for the world we live in today. Thanks for printing the words.

I am a Canadian with my son, American-born DIL and grandson living in Colorado. I weep for the lives snuffed out this weekend because of who they choose to love.
I love Elvis! This song is so good. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this. It rings true today, just as it did yesteryear. Love it!!!!
Thank you Corey. He is my all time favorite
AMEN
Thanks again, Corey, for a timely reminder. I, too, live in Colorado—Boulder to be exact. We have seen so many acts of senseless violence, Club Q being the latest. Hatred of others poisons our souls and our country. This song, and Elvis’ amazing rendition is a reminder that we all have to keep working, walking, talking, and hoping for a better tomorrow.
Perfect for this week. Thank you, Corey.
And Happy Thanksgiving!
Oh my! I remember seeing this concert on TV. How I loved Elvis. My mother tried to guide me toward Pat Boone, but watching this video strengthened the choice my young self made. The song and delivery are extraordinary, and I thank you, Corey, for bringing this back to me. The times were hard, the song was an appeal to sanity. Timely isn’t it.
