《悲惨世界》中非常著名的一首曲子。老版悲惨世界讲这首歌安排在《at the end of the day》之后，《lovely ladies》之前，2012版将它安排在了《lovely ladies》之后，Fantine已被迫成为妓女之后。

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

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.
