Sarah Brightman Andrew Lloyd Webber - Sarah Brightman - Memories (Cats) Lyrics

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.

CHORUS
Every streetlamp,
seems to beat,
a fatalistic warning,
someone mutters at 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.

INSTRUMENTAL FILL

Burnt out ends of smoky days,
the stale cold smell of morning,
the streetlamp dies,
an-other night is over,
another day is dawning.

Touch me,
It's so easy to leave me,
all alone with my memory,
of my days in the sun,
if you touch me
you'll understand what happiness is.
Look...a new day has begun
