Journey with an ex-seminarian as he fulfill his dreams and search his place in the greater scheme of things on the wings of his dream“I Dreamed A Dream” by Susan Boyle – MP3 and Lyrics Download
Susan Boyle has just immortalized anew one of Les Miserables‘ song called “I Dream A Dream” when she sang it on a talent show called “Britain’s Got Talent” and wowed the audience and judges alike against their earlier skepticism. Just a brief trivia about the song, it was sung in the Broadway Musical Les Miserables by the Character Fantine in Act I. The lyrics are about lost innocence and broken dreams. Fantine is abandoned by her lover, gives birth to a daughter, Cosette, out of wedlock, is wrongly dismissed from a desperately-needed job, and forced into prostitution to survive and to support her daughter. It is sung directly after “At the End of the Day“. The 1980 french version of the song is called “J’avais rêvé d’une autre vie” (I Dreamed of Another Life) while in the 1991 revival, it was called “J’avais rêvé” (I Dreamed). Three of my readers has been asking me to upload the MP3 file of the actual live performance of the song, so here it is for all of your heart’s content. Be Inspired because anyone can dream. Like St. Augustine’s famous quote, I dare paraphrase in reference to Susan Boyle’s amazing determination “Late I have Dreamed Thee!”.
I DREAMED A DREAM
Performed by Susan Boyle
Britain’s Got Talent 2009
April 11, 2009
There was a time when men were kind,
And their voices were soft,
And their words inviting.
There was a time when love was blind,
And the world was a song,
And the song was exciting.
There was a time when 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,
And they turn your dream to shame.
He slept a summer by my side,
He filled my days with endless wonder…
He took my childhood in his stride,
But he was gone when autumn came!
And still I dream he’ll come to me,
That we will 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…

I have been trying all morning to download the song “I had a dream” by Susan Boyle. This page shows a link to download the MP3 or lyrics and I have tried and tried but no result when I click except it keeps telling me it is “buffering”.
Can you please tell me how I can download this song (not the video, just the song!) as a surprise for my husband . I would be very grateful!
I am
SOOOOOOOOOO frustrated!
Hello Ray,
The bandwidth limit has exceeded but its fixed now. You can download it now if you have means.
Okay, I’m slow. Using either Firefox or IE all I get is embedded the Flash player above the lyrics. Where exactly on this page is the link to download the mp3?
Much thanks.
I’ve been having the exact same trouble. :/
I dont encourage piracy on my blog but for heaven’s sake here is a hint: Use firefox browser. Then google “how to download mp3 using firefox browser” from there you will find the answer already. I wont put the mp3 if its not downloadable.
Be resourceful, Not everything will be given to you via spoonfeeding.
Hope you find the answer since many has already downloaded it. If you cant figure it out. sorry. You just have to be resourceful enough.
Susan Boyle’s voice is simply incredible.
I do hope the fame doesn’t go to her head; there are rumors she is considering plastic surgery! Part of her charm is her natural beauty. . .
In The Last Few weeks iv heard two of the best singers on this planet with voices that of angels. Vitas Fills My Heart With Joy And Susan Brings Tears To My Eyes. Im A Nobody That Could Have Been Someone A World Class Goalkeeper Destroyed By Drugs Fill Your Aspirations Dont Get Hooked.. Susan I Wish You Well And Good Luck.
