[00:13.870]I dreamed a dream in days gone by
[00:21.640]When hope was high and life worth living
[00:29.520]I dreamed that love would never die
[00:36.570]I dreamed that God would be forgiving.
[00:43.450]Then I was young and unafraid
[00:49.860]And dreams were made and used and wasted.
[00:57.640]There was no ransom to be paid,
[01:06.350]No song unsung, no wine untasted.
[01:11.660]But the tigers come at night
[01:18.770]With their voices soft as thunder
[01:25.150]As they tear your hope apart
[01:32.420]As they turn your dream to shame.
[01:47.020]She slept a summer by my side,
[01:54.350]She filled my days with endless wonder.
[02:00.400]She took my childhood in his stride
[02:07.600]But She was gone when autumn came.
[02:20.790]And still I dreamed he'd come to me,
[02:27.340]That we would live the years together
[02:35.010]But there are dreams that can not be
[02:40.970]And there are storms we can not weather.
[02:50.420]I had a dream my life would be
[02:56.970]So different from this hell I'm living,
[03:01.220]So different now from what it seemed
[03:08.680]Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.
