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 But the tigers come at night (But the tigers come at night) With their voices soft as thunder As they tear your hope apart (As they tear your hope apart) As they turn your dream to shame And still I dreamed that 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
