I Dreamed A Dream

I dreamed a dream in times gone by
我曾怀揣的夢想已遠去
When hope was high
那時候我信心萬丈
And life worth living
生命噴薄出應有的價值
I dreamed that love would never die
我夢想愛將永垂不朽
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
我夢想上帝必永恆寬仁
Then I was young and unafraid
那時我年輕無懼
And dreams were made and used and wasted
夢想被打造被消磨也被隨意丟棄
There was no ransom to be paid
那不需要償還什麼的日子裡
No song unsung
笙歌夜夜
No wine untasted
不醉不休
But the tigers come at night
而老虎總是在夜晚出沒
With their voices soft as thunder
伴隨著如雷一樣低沉的鳴嘶
As they tear your hope apart
當它們撕碎你的希冀
And they turn your dream to shame
當它們將你的夢變成羞恥
And still I dream he'll come to me
但我仍然期望他走近我
That we'll live the years together
那樣我們就能夠長相廝守在一起
But there are dreams that cannot be
但是夢想難期
And there are storms we cannot weather
暴風雨我們無法躲避

我夢想著我的生活將會
I had a dream my life would be
如此地與苦難的現實遙遙相距
So different from this hell I'm living
如此地與所有的一切背向而馳
So different now from what it seemed
可我這一生已經被殺死
Now life has killed
夢想只能成為夢寐
The dream I dreamed.
