midnight.  not a sound from the pavement.



-8 9 -9 9 7 -7 -7

has the moon lost her mem'ry?



-6 7 -7 7 -6 6

she is smiling alone.



6 7 7 -5

in the lamplight,



6 -6 7 -7 -8 9 -8 -7 7

the withered leaves collect at my feet,



6 5 7 -3 -3 -4 5

and the wind begins to moan.



9 9 -8 9 -9 9 -7 9 9

mem'ry.  all alone in the moonlight.



-8 9 -9 9 7 -7 -7

i can smile at the old days.



-6 7 -7 7 -6 6

i was beautiful then.



6 7 7 -5

i remember



6 -6 7 -7 -8 9 -8 -7 7

the time i knew what happiness was,



6 5 7 7 -3 -4 5

let the mem'ry live again.



-4 6 -4 -3 -4 6 -4 -3

ev'ry street lamp seems to beat a



-4 6 6 -5 5 -5 -5

fatalistic warning.



7 7 7 -8

someone mutters,



-7 7 -6# -6# -6# -7

and the street lamp gutters,



7 -8 -8 -8 9# -9 -7

and soon it will be morning.



9 9 -8 9 -9 9 -7 9 9

daylight.  i must wait for the sunrise.



-8 9 -9 9 7 -7 -7

i must think of a new life,



-6 7 -7 7 -6 6

and i mustn't give in.



6 7 7 -5

when the dawn comes,



6 -6 7 -7 -8 9 -8 -7 7

tonight will be a memory too,



6 5 7 7 -3 5 5

and a new day will begin.



3 5 3 -2 -2 3 5 3 -2

burnt out ends of smoky days,



-2 3 5 5 -3# 3# -3# -3#

the stale cold smell of morning.



-5# -5# -5# -5#

the street lamp dies.



7 -6 -5# -5 -5 -5 6

another night is over.



-5# 7 7 7 -7 -7# -6

another day is dawning.



-9# -9# -9 -9# 10# -9# -9#

touch me.  it's so easy to leave me,



-9 -9# 10# -9# -7# 9 9

all alone with the mem'ry,



7# -7# 8 -7# 7# 7

of my days in the sun.



7 -7# -7# -6

if you touch me,



7 7# -7# 8 -9 -9# -9 8 -7#

you'll understand what happiness is.



7 -3# -7# -7# 5 -5# -9#

look, a new day has begun.
