MEMORY
(Barry Manilow)
Midnight, not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her mem'ry?
She is smiling alone;
In the lamplight, the withered leaves collect
at my feet
And the wind begins to moan.
.
Mem'ry, all alone in the moonlight,
I can smile at the old days, It was beautiful
then;
I remember the time I knew what happiness
was,
Let the mem'ry live again.
.
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 be here.
.
BRIDGE
Burnt out ends of smoky days,
The stale cold smell of morning;
The streetlamp dies,
Another night is over,
Another day is dawning.
.
Touch me, it's so easy to leave me,
All alone in the mem'ry
Of my day in the sun;
If you touch me you'll understand what
happiness is
Look a new day has began.
.
