Music: claude-michel schönberg
Lyrics: herbert kretzmer
Original text: alain boublil and jean-marc natel

I dreamed a dream in days 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
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame

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 dreamed he'd come to me
That we would live the years together
But there are dreams that can not be
And there are storms we can not weather

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
