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
Soon it will be morning


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

(instrumental)


Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale court smell of morning

A street lamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is dawning


Touch me,
It is so easy to leave me

All alone with my memory
Of my days in the sun
If you'll touch me,

You'll understand what happiness is
Look, a new day has begun.
