Intro

      

Verse

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 

Chorus

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    

Verse

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 will live the years together 
But there are dreams that cannot be  
And there are storms we cannot weather   

Bridge

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.
