Memory

Midnight

Not a sound from the pavement

Has the moon lost her memory?

She is smiling alone

In the lamplight

The withered leaves collect at my feet

And the wind

Begins to moan


Memory

All alone in the moonlight

I can smile at the old days

I was beautiful then

I remember

The time I knew what happiness was

Let the memory

Live again


Every street lamp

Seems to beat

A fatalistic warning

Someone mutters

And a street lamp gutters

And soon it will be morning


Daylight

I must wait for the sunrise

I must think for a new life

And I mustn t give in

When the dawn comes

Tonight will be a memory too

And a new day

Will begin

[Solo]


Burnt out ends

Of smoky days

The stale cold smell of morning

The street lamp dies

Another night is over

Another day is dawning


Touch me

It s so easy to leave me

All alone with the memory

Of my days in the sun

If you touch me

You ll understand what happiness is

Look, a new day

Has begun
