1.C Am
Midnight. Not a sound from the pavement.
F Em
Has the moon lost her memory? She is smiling alone.
Dm Am
In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet.
G F C
And the wind begins to moan.
2.C Am
Memory. All alone in the moonlight,
F Em
I can smile at the old days. Life was beautiful then.
Dm Am
I remember the time I knew what happiness was,
G F C
let the memory live again.
Bridge:
Em Dm Em Dm Em C D G Em A7
Every street lamp seems to beat a fatalistic warning. Someone mutters
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Em A7 D
and a street lamp gutters and soon it will be morning.
3.C Am
Daylight. I must wait for the sunrise,
F Em
I must think of a new life and I mustn�t give in.
Dm Am
When the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too and
G F C
a new day will begin.
