風起的記憶

掀開我踩過的夢

過往，已點化入波

歸去的浪花，不復湛藍

回眸之後，我隱約瞥見

投影的足印，輕輕踏出我的夢境

I dreamed a dream

There was a time when men were kind
曾有一度人們是良善的
When their voices were soft
那時他們的聲調溫柔
And their words inviting
字語動人
There was a time when love was blind
曾有一度愛情是盲目的
And the world was a song and the song was exciting
世界就像一支動人的旋律
There was a time
那是過往的時光了啊
Then it all went wrong
後來一切都變了
I dreamed a dream in time gone by
我夢見在夢境中過往的時光
When hope was high
抱持著崇高的盼望
And life worth living
生活充滿了生命力
I dreamed that love would never die
我夢見愛永不止息
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
我夢見了上帝的寬容
Then I was young and unafraid
那時我年輕無懼
And dreams were made and used and wasted
夢想被打造也被消磨
There was no ransom to be paid
無原由的揮豁殆盡
No song unsung, no wine untasted
唱盡了人間悲歡離合的歌, 嚐盡了天下香甜苦辣的酒
But the tigers come at night
而老虎(此只危機)總是在夜晚出沒
With their voices soft as thunder
牠們的低吼猶如暗雷低迴
As they tear your hope apart
好像在哀悼你的希望被摧毀
And they turn your dream to shame
並扭曲使你的夢想蒙羞
He slept a summer by my side
他整個夏天在我身旁安睡
He filled my days with endless wonder
他使我的每日充滿無比驚奇
He took my childhood in his stride
他關照我的童年進展
But he was gone when autumn came
但當秋天來時他卻離開了我
And still I dream he'll come to me
直至如今，我仍夢想著他將要回到我身旁
That we will live the years together
夢想著我們可以一起度過美好時光
But there are dreams that cannot be
但這些夢想不會成真了
And there are storms we cannot weather
我們也經不起這些狂風暴雨
I had a dream my life would be
我的夢想曾經即將實現
So different from this hell I'm living
與我悲慘境遇大異其趣
So different now from what it seemed
相形現在是這麼的不同
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.
現在的生活扼殺了我做的夢
