I dreamed a dream


This describes my life to the letter. I could not help but cry my eyes out.

 

 

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 

And 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 dream he'll come to me 

That we'll 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 much different from this hell I'm living 

So different now from what it seemed 

Now life has killed The dream I dreamed.
