Midnight  not  a  sound  from  the  pavement
Has  the  moon  lost  her  memory
She  is  smiling  alone
In  the  lamplight  the  whithered  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  street  lamp  seems  to  beat
A  fatalistic  warning
Someone  mutters  and  the  street  lamp  gutters
And  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
Burnt  out  ends  of  smoky  days
The  still  cold  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  the  memory
Of  my  days  in  the  sun
If  you  touch  me
You  ll  understand  what  happiness  is
Look  a  new  day  has  begun
