I Dreamed A Dream by Beau Dermott Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted

[Pre-Chorus]
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame

[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
