Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There was a time when men were kind
When their voices were soft and their words inviting
There was a time when love was blind
And the world was a song and the song was exciting
There was a time when it all went wrong
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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 5]
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
[Verse 6]
And still I dream he'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
[Verse 7]
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
Written by: Alain Boublil, Claude-Michel Schönberg, Herbert Kretzmer
