I Dreamed a Dream
[SHELBY]
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
[RACHEL]
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
[SHELBY]
But the tigers come at night
[RACHEL]
But the tigers come at night
[SHELBY]
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
[RACHEL]
As they tear your hope apart
[SHELBY]
As they turn your dream
[SHELBY & RACHEL]
To shame...
[RACHEL]
And still I dream she'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
[SHELBY & RACHEL]
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
