Memory (UK 1981Musical "Cats")

Daylight see the dew on the sunflower
And a rose that is fading
Roses whither away
Like a sunflower
I yearn to turn my face to the dawn
I am waiting for the Day
[03:13.72][00:33.67]
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
I was beautiful then
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again
Every street lamp Seems to be
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters And a streetlamp gutter
And soon it will be morning
Daylight I must wait for the sun rise
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 cold smell of morning
The street lamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is dawning
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
