Memory Songtext
von Michael Crawford

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
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 a 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

Burned out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
The streetlamp dies, another night is over
Another day is dawning

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
