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 gutters

And soon it will be morning

Daylight I must wait

for the sunrise

I must think of a new life

And I mustnt 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
