Hi.
I am not sure what kind of answer you are expecting. However, the phrase you refer to is probably belonging to so-called "3rd conditional". I 'll show you my translation for example, "夢ならばどれほどよかったでしょう" = How good would it have been if it had been just a dream.
"夢ならば” suggests "something not a dream and I don't want it "
"良かったでしょう”suggests "actually not good to me at the moment".
Although My English is not really good to tell you all about Japanese. I hope my answer would solve your question.
