[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Memory
All alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
I was beautiful then
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again
[Bridge]
Every streetlamp seems to beat
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters
And the streetlamp gutters
And soon it will be morning
[Verse 3]
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
[Bridge]
Burnt-out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
A streetlamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is dawning
[Verse 4]
Touch me
It's so easy to leave me
All alone with my memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is
Look, a new day has begun
