Memory

Midnight
Not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory
She is smiling alone
In the lamp light
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan

Memory
All alone in the moonlight 
I can dream of 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

Day light 
I must wait for the sunrise 
I must think of a new life
And I musn'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 
A street lamp dies

Another night is over
Another day is dawning

Touch me
It's so easy to leave me
All alone with my memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is.Look

A new day has begun
