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...
With their voices soft as thunder...
As they turn your hope apart...
As they turn your dreams to shame...
And still I dream he'd come to me...
That we would live the years together...
But there are dreams that cannot be...
And there are storms we cannot weather...
I had a dream my life would be...
So different from the hell I'm living...
So different now from what it seemed...
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed...
On my own, pretending he's beside me...
All alone I walk with him till morning...
Without him I feel his arms around me...
- And when I lose my way I close my eyes and he has found me...
In the rain the pavement shines like silver...
All the lights are misty in the river...
In the darkness the trees are full of starlight
- And all I see is him and me forever and forever...
And I know it's only in my mind...
That I'm talking to myself and not to him...
And although I know that he is blind...
Still I say, there's a way for us...
I love him, but everyday I´m learning...
All my life I've only been pretending...
Without me his world would go on turning,-
A world that's full of happiness, that I have never known...
I love him!
I love him, but only on my own...
