Dreamed a Dream

Dreamed a Dream - Jimmy Serino Company

I dreamed a dream in times 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

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

And still I dreamed she'll come to me

That we would live the years together

But there are dreams that cannot be

And there are storms we cannot weather

But there are dreams that cannot be

And there are storms we cannot weather

I had a dream my life would be

So diff'rent from this hell I'm living

So diff'rent now from what it seemed

Now life has killed the dream I dreamed
