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 begings to moan
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
let the memory live again
every street lamp
seems to beat a fatalistic warning
someone mutters and a street lamp gutters
and soon it will be morning
day light
i must wait for the sunrise
i must think of a new life
and i musn&9t 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
a street lamp dies, another night is over
another day is dawning
touch me
it&9s so easy to leave me
all alone with my memory
of my days in the sun
if you touch me
you&9ll understand what happiness is
look, a new day has begun

Memory出自于安德鲁· 劳埃德·韦伯的歌剧《猫》。该剧完成于1981年，现在已经成为音乐剧历史上最卖座的作品之一.演出分两幕共21首歌曲，最经典的就是这首《memory》。优美而略带哀伤的旋律，诗样的歌词，都使它令人难忘。
