Midnight

Not a sound from the pavementHas the moon lost her memory?She is smiling aloneIn the lamplightThe withered leaves collect at my feetAnd the wind begins to moan
MemoryAll alone in the moonlightI can smile at the old daysI was beautiful thenI rememberThe time I knew what happiness wasLet the memory live again
Every street lampSeems to beat a fatalistic warningSomeone mutters at the street lamp guttersAnd soon it will be morning
DaylightI must wait for the sunriseI must think of a new lifeAnd I mustn't give inWhen the dawn comesTonight will be a memory tooAnd a new day will begin
Burnt out ends of smoky daysThe stale cold smell of morningA street lamp dies, another night is overAnother day is dawning
Touch meIt's so easy to leave meAll alone with my memoryOf my days in the sunIf you touch meYou'll understand what happiness isLook a new day has begun
