Memory

Midnight Not a sound from the pavement

Has the moon lost his mem'ry?

She is smiling alone

In the lamplight

the withered leaves collect at my feet

and the wind begins to moan

Mem'ry 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 mem'ry live again

Ev'ry 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 of 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

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 mem'ry

of my days in the sun

If you touch me you'll

understand what happiness is

Look a new day has begun
