Lyrics

[00:22.945] I dreamed a dream in time gone by
[00:29.484] When hope was high and life worth living
[00:36.225] I dreamed that love would never die
[00:43.426] I dreamed that God would be forgiving
[00:50.476] Then I was young and unafraid
[00:57.070] And dreams were made and used and wasted
[01:04.108] There was no ransom to be paid
[01:10.634] No song unsung, no wine untasted
[01:17.809] But the tigers come at night
[01:24.588] With their voices soft as thunder
[01:31.333] As they tear your hope apart
[01:38.269] As they turn your dream to shame
[01:52.812] She slept a summer by my side
[01:58.989] She filled my days with endless wonder
[02:05.486] She took my childhood in her stride
[02:12.871] But She was gone when autumn came
[02:22.876] And still I dream she'll come to me
[02:28.933] That we will live the years together
[02:36.177] But there are dreams that cannot be
[02:42.118] And there are storms we cannot weather
[02:52.040] I had a dream my life would be
[02:58.413] So different from this hell I'm living
[03:02.792] So different now from what it seemed
[03:09.457] Now life has killed the dream I dreamed
