MEMORY (B.Streisand)

[Icarus]

Would someone know the lyrics of that beautiful song from A.Loyd Webber
?

Thanks, and don't eat too much chocolate
from a big chocolate eater

[Anthony B. Gilpin]

MEMORY (From "Cats")
Music by Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber
Words by Trevor Nunn (based on an unpublished poem by T.S. Eliot)

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

Memory
All alone in the moonlight,
I can smile at the old days
I was beautiful then...
I remember
A time I knew what happiness was...
Let the memory live again.

Every streetlamp seems to beat,
A fatalistic warning.
Someone mutters,
And a streetlamp gutters,
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.

Burnt-out ends of smoky days
The stale, 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 the memory
Of my days in the sun.
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is...
Look.
A new day has begun.
