Hayley Westenra "Memory" lyrics

Memory

MidnightNot a sound from the pavementHas the moon lost her memory?She is smiling aloneIn the lamplight, the withered leaves collect at my feetAnd the wind begins to moan

MemoryAll alone in the moonlightI can smile at the old daysI was beautiful thenI remember the time I knew what happiness wasLet the memory live again

Every streetlamp seems to beatA fatalistic warningSomeone mutters and a streetlamp guttersAnd soon it will be morning

DaylightI must wait for the sunriseI must think of a new lifeAnd I mustn't give inWhen the dawn comes, tonight will be a memory tooAnd a new day will begin

Burnt out end of smoky daysThe stale cold smell of morningA streetlamp dies, another night is overAnother day is dawning

Touch me!It's so easy to leave meAll alone with the memoryOf my days in the sunIf you touch me, you'll understand what happiness isLook, a new day has begun ...
