Midnight, not a sound from the pavement As the moon lost her memory, she's smiling alone In the lamplight, the watered leaves collect at my feet And the wind begins to moan Memory of a nun 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 read a fatalistic warning Someone met us and the street lamp got us 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 day will begin Instrumental Burned out ends of smoky days, the still 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 Instrumental
