[Verse]
             
I dreamed a dr

          
eam in time go

              
ne by
             
When hope was 

          
high
              
And life worth

          
 living
             
I dreamed that

          
 love would ne

            
ver die
             
I dreamed that

          
 God would be 

                  
forgiving
             
Then I was you

          
ng and unafrai

              
d
             
And dreams wer

          
e made and use

                       
d and wasted
             
There was no r

          
ansom to be pa

               
id
             
No song unsung

          
, no wine unta

                
sted
   
[Chorus]   
             
But the tigers

            
 come at night
             
With their voi

            
ces soft as th

             
under
             
As they tear y

             
our hope apart
             
And they turn 

              
your dream to 

                           
shame

[Verse]   
             
He slept a sum

                    
mer by my side
             
He filled my d

          
ays with endle

             
ss wonder
             
He took my chi

          
ldhood in his 

           
stride
             
But he was gon

         
e when autumn 

              
came

             
And still I dr

          
eam he'll come

               
 to me
             
That we will l

          
ive the years 

              
together
             
But there are 

          
dreams that ca

               
nnot be
             
And there are 

          
storms we cann

                    
ot weather

[Bridge]   
        
I had a dream 

           
my life would 

                
be
          
So different f

             
rom this hell 

       
I'm living
             
So different n

/           
ow from what i

              
t seemed
             
Now life has k

             
illed the drea

                        
m I dreamed.
