Les Miserables - I Dreamed A Dream |
Les Miserables There was a time when men were kind, when their voices were soft and their words inviting. there was a time when love was blind, and the world was a song, and the song was exciting. there was a time...and then it all went wrong I dreamed a dream in time gone by, when hopes were high and life worth living, I dreamed that God would be forgiving. I dreamed that love would never die when dreams were made and used and wasted. The I was young and unafraid, There was no ransom to be payed, no song unsung, no wine untasted. But the tigers come at night, with their voices soft as thunder, as they tear your hope apart As they turn your dreams to shame He slept a summer by my side. He took my childhood in his stride, He filled my days with endless wonder, but he was gone when autumn came. And still I dream he'll come to me but there are dreams that cannot be And we will live the years together, 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 all it seems... I dreamedNow life has killed the dream |
