|
Midnight, not a sound from the pavement |
|
Has the moon lost her memory? She is shining alone |
|
In the lamplight the whithered leaves collect at my feet |
|
And the wind begins to moan |
|
Daylight, see the dew on the sunflower |
|
And a rose that is fading, roses wither away |
|
Like the sunflower I yearn to turn my face to the dawn |
|
I am waiting for the day |
|
Now Old Deuteronomy, just before dawn |
|
Through a silence you feel you could cut with a knife |
|
Announces the cat who can now be reborn |
|
And come back to a different Jellicle life |
|
Memory, turn your face to the moonlight |
|
Let your memory lead you, open up, enter in |
|
If you find there the meaning of what happiness is |
|
Then a new life will begin |
|
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 |
|
Burnt out ends of smoky days |
|
The stale cold smell of morning |
|
The street lamp dies, another night is over |
|
Another day is dawning |
|
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 |
|
Sunlight, through the trees in the summer |
|
Endless masquerading |
|
Like a flower as the dawn is breaking |
|
The memory is fading |
|
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 |
