The Cats (Andrew Lloyd Webber) - Memory текст песни

Daylight...
See the dew on the sunflower
And a rose that is fading
Roses wither away.
Like the sunflower I yearn to turn my face to the dawn,
I am waiting for the day.

Midnight,
Not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory
She is smiling alone.
In the lamp light
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan.

Memory -
All alone in the moonlight
I can smile like 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 beat
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters and the street lamp gutters
And soon it will be morning.

Daylight.
I must wait for the sun rise
I must think for the new life
And I mustn't give in.
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And the new day will begin.

Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
A 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 began...
