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 And dreams were made and used and wasted There was no ransome to be paid No song unsing No wine untasted But the tigers come at night With their voices soft as thunder As they tear your hopes apart Asthey turn your dreams to shame She slept a summer by my side She filled my days with endless wonder She took my child hood in her stride But she was gone when autumn came And still I dream she'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
