Memory Barry
Manilow |
|
|
|
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 sputters |
|
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 stale court 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'll touch me, |
|
You'll understand what
happiness is |
|
Look, a new day has
begun... |
