Sarah Brightman Memories lyrics

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
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 a street lamp gutters
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 life 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
