|
leave night , |
|
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 drink 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 |
|
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 |
|
|
|
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... |
