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
I was beautiful then

I remember the time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again


Every streetlamp
Seems to beat a fatalistic warning
Someone mutters

And the streetlamp 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 streetlamp 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
