Memory [From Cats]

I remember
And I mustn't give in
And a new life will begin

And the wind begins to moan
Touch me, it's so easy to leave me

I can smile at the old days
Another night is over
Someone mutters
Every street lamp
When the dawn comes
Of smokey days
Burnt out ends
Memory, all alone in the moonlight
The street lamp dies

And a street lamp gutters
Another day is dawning
The withered leaves collect at my feet
Life was beautiful then
She is smiling alone
A fatalistic warning
Seems to beat
The time I knew what happiness was
In the lamplight
The stale cold smell of morning
And soon it will be morning

All alone with my memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
Let the memory live again
You'll understand what happiness is
I must think of a new life
Tonight will be a memory too
Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise
