Memory

Song by Andrew Lloyd Webber, T. S. Eliot, Trevor Nunn.


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
It was beautiful then
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory
Live again!

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 court 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 day in the sun.
If you'll touch me
You'll understand what happiness is
Look, a new day
has begun...!

[repeat *]
