Andrew Lloyd Webber - Memory lyrics

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 smile of the old days

Life was beautiful then

I remember the time I knew what happiness was

Let the memory live again

Ev'ry street lamp seems to beat

A fatalistic warning

Someone mutters and a street lamps gutters

And soon it will be morning

Daylight 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

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
