I Dreamed a Dream Aretha Franklin

[Intro]
I had a dream

[Verse]
I had a dream of days gone by
When hopes were high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
And then I dreamed that God would be forgiving
That I was young and I was unafraid
And dreams were made and used and tasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, nothing was wasted

[Bridge]
Then the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your dreams apart
As they turn your dreams
To shame, shame, shame, shame

He walked the summer
He walked the summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
Oh, but he was gone when autumn came
Oh yes he was
