(47 Year old Susan Boyle wows the judges with her performance in the auditions for Britains Got Talent, singing I dreamed a dream from Les Miserables. Here are the Lyrics(Thanks to NewHotdox) -I dreamed a dream in time gone by When hope was high,And life worth livingI dreamed that love would never die I dreamed that God would be forgiving.Then I was young and unafraidWhen dreams were made and used,And wastedThere was no ransom to be paidNo song unsung,No wine untasted.But the tigers come at nightWith their voices soft as thunderAs they tear your hopes apartAs they turn your dreams to shame.And still I dream he'll come to me And we will live our lives togetherBut there are dreams that cannot beAnd there are stormsWe cannot weather...I had a dream my life would beSo different from this hell I'm livingSo different now from what it seemsNow life has killedThe dream I dreamed.The most stand out audition of the show was that of 47 year old Susan Boyle. Susan first appeared with Ant and Dec declaring that she is a single woman who lives with her cat. Not only has she never been married but she also admitted that she had never even been kissed. Susan looked like your typical batty old aunt, gold dress and all and when she walked on to stage you could just feel the scorn of the audience. Simon Cowell didnt look too hopeful when Susan said she wanted to be a professional singer <b>...</b>
