i dreamed a dream lyrics
Verse 1:
I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high and life worthwhile
I dreamed it could be me and you
Climbing high and higher mountains too
Chorus:
And then I saw the world in pain
Children weeping and hearts breakin'
No time for hope or pity now
In a world that never seemed to grow
Verse 2:
But hope is what we have to hold on to
While life's still worth the fightin' for
I dreamed that love would never die
And pain was all a lie
But now I see the world in doubt
Where does my heart belong?
Bridge:
As tears roll down my face of stone
All I can feel is emptiness and loss
It's a dream that's fading fast
But I'll keep on dreaming till the end of time
Chorus:
And then I saw the world in pain
Children weeping and hearts breakin'
No time for hope or pity now
In a world that never seemed to grow
Outro:
I dreamed a dream, but now I know
It's not the world I'm leaving now
It's just a dream, it's just a dream, it's just a dream to me.
