Answer 2

Do you mean the song I Dreamed a Dream? If so LES MISERABLES sang it. Did it go. Also this song was published in 1980:

There was a time, when men were kind And their voices were soft And their words were inviting There was a time, when love was blind And the world was a song And the song was exciting There was a time it all went wrong

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 As they turn your dreams to shame

He slept a summer by my side He filled my dreams with endless wonder He took my childhood in his stride But he was gone when autumn came

And still I dream he'd come to me That we would 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 the hell I'm living So different now from what it seemed Now life has killed the dream I dreamed

Answer 3

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 turn your hope apart

As they turn your dreams to shame

And still I dream he'd come to me

That we would 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 the hell I'm living

So different now from what it seemed

Now life has killed the dream I dreamed
