Midnight, not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory? She is shining alone
In the lamplight the whithered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan

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

Now Old Deuteronomy, just before dawn
Through a silence you feel you could cut with a knife
Announces the cat who can now be reborn
And come back to a different Jellicle life

Memory, turn your face to the moonlight
Let your memory lead you, open up, enter in
If you find there the meaning of what happiness is
Then a new life will begin

Memory, all alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days, I was beautiful then
I remember the time I knew what happiness was

Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
The street lamp dies, another night is over
Another day is dawning

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

Sunlight, through the trees in the summer
Endless masquerading
Like a flower as the dawn is breaking
The memory is fading

Touch me, it's so easy to leave me
All alone with the memory of my days in the sun
If you touch me you'll understand what happiness is
Look, a new day has begun

Midnight, not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory? She is shining alone
In the lamplight the whithered leaves collect at my feet
