I dreamed a dream-回憶 • There was a time when men were kindWhen their voices were softAnd their words invitingThere was a time when love was blindAnd the world was a songAnd the song was excitingThere was a timeThen it all went wrong
I dreamed a dream in time gone byWhen hope was highAnd life worth livingI dreamed that love would never dieI dreamed that God would be forgivingThen I was young and unafraidAnd dreams were made and used and wastedThere was no ransom to be paidNo song unsung, no wine untasted
But the tigers come at nightWith their voices soft as thunderAs they tear your hope apartAnd they turn your dream to shame • He slept a summer by my sideHe filled my days with endless wonderHe took my childhood in his strideBut he was gone when autumn came
And still I dream he'll come to meThat we will live the years togetherBut there are dreams that cannot beAnd there are storms we cannot weather • I had a dream my life would beSo different from this hell I'm livingSo different now from what it seemedNow life has killed the dream I dreamed • 現實使她無望 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yt-IBJpEMzA
Susan Boyle’s Version-trimmed • 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 tear your hope apart And they turn your dream to shame And still I dream he'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 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
Don’t Judge a Book by Its Cover • Boyle is fat and middle-aged, not much of star quality but had a dream to become professional singer. • Audience was astonished by her voice. • The contrast between her performance and her person created the drama. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxPZh4AnWyk&feature=related
