Les Joyeux - Part 1


Les Joyeux
for Jonelle and Bailey

There’ll be time when life will be kind
When life’s voices are sweet
And the words will sadness allay
There’ll be a time when love becomes blind
And the world sings a song
And welcomes all come what may
There will be a time
I pray it won’t be long

I dreamed a dream of a time yet to be
When hope empowers
And life worth living
I dreamed that love will never die
Since I know God is forgiving
Once I was young and filled with fear
But dreams will be made and won and lost
There’ll be no answer unsaid
And life will be lived at any cost

Accusations come at night
With their voices as a lion’s roar
But one day they'll be silenced
As we dare to dream for more

He sleeps a life time by her side
She fills his days with endless wonder
Their childhood was sadly taken away
But innocence was restored when freedom came

And still she dreams he'll come to her
That they will live the years together
‘Cause there are dreams that yet may be
And there are storms we all shall weather

I have a dream our lives will be
So different from the lives we were living
So different now from what had been
Now dreams have renewed our hope within..

based on I Dreamed a Dream
from Les Miserables
words and music by
Herbert Kretzmer and
Claude-Michel Schonberg
