I dreamed a dream in time gone
by
When hope was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would
never die
I dreamed that God
would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
So dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be
paid
No song unsung
No wine untasted
But the tigers come at
night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
And they turn your dream to
shame
He slept a summer by my
side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his
stride
But he was gone when autumn
came
And still I dream he'll
come to me
That we will live the years
together
But there are dreams that
cannot be
And there are storms we cannot
weather
I had a dream
my life would be
So different from this hell
I'm living
So different now from what it
seemed
Now life has killed
The dream I dreamed
