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 dream of the old days
|
Life 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 the street lamp sputters
|
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
|
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...
