I dreamed a dream

E ela não ganhou, ficou em segundo. Mas ela viveu o sonho que cantou tão bonito. Ela me diz que, apesar da letra da música* que repetiu na final dizer o contrário, vale a pena tentar viver os sonhos. Vale a pena quebrar paradigmas, vale pena tentar andar na contra-mão. Nem sempre venceremos, mas a tentativa já nos lança a uma nova vida, a novos sonhos, a novas oportunidades.

I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hopes were 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,
When dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be payed,
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

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