She Dreamt A Dream [Fantine]

she dreamt a dream

in time gone by

where the man who left her

would never catch her eye

She dreamt a dream

in time gone by

where there was somebody near

to have a shoulder where her tears could dry

She dreamt a dream

in time gone by

with no bastards above her

to block her vision of the night sky

She dreamt a lot of dreams

but still she can't understand

the reason why she and her daughter

can't be together again.
