I Dreamed A Dream

I Dreamed A Dream - Big Movie Themes

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

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

He slept a summer by my side

He filled my days with endless wonder

He took

My childhood in his stride

But he was gone when autumn came

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

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
