[00:00.24]Memory - Andrew Lloyd Webber
[00:01.48]Daylight
[00:03.74]See the dew on a sunflower
[00:08.31]And a rose that is fading
[00:12.86]Roses wither away
[00:18.15]Like the sunflower I yearn to turn my face to the dawn
[00:26.36]I am waiting for the day
[01:05.90]Midnight
[01:08.68]Not a sound from the pavement
[01:13.34]Has the moon lost her memory
[01:17.97]She is smiling alone
[01:23.22]In the lamplight
[01:26.41]The withered leaves collect at my feet
[01:31.81]And the wind begins to moan
[01:39.88]Memory
[01:42.65]All alone in the moonlight
[01:47.15]I can smile at the old days
[01:51.82]I was beautiful then
[01:57.01]I remember the time I knew what happiness was
[02:05.60]Let the memory live again
[02:13.80]Every streetlamp seems to beat
[02:20.57]A fatalistic warning
[02:28.17]Someone mutters
[02:31.29]And the streetlamp gutters
[02:35.08]And soon it will be morning
[02:43.99]Daylight
[02:46.58]I must wait for the sunrise
[02:50.56]I must think of a new life
[02:54.68]And I mustn't give in
[02:59.83]When the dawn comes
[03:02.24]Tonight will be a memory too
[03:07.58]And a new day will begin
[03:46.17]Burnt out ends of smoky days
[03:52.74]The stale cold smell of morning
[04:00.09]A streetlamp dies
[04:03.13]Another night is over
[04:07.41]Another day is dawning
[04:16.24]Touch me
[04:19.02]It's so easy to leave me
[04:23.39]All alone with my memory
[04:28.15]Of my days in the sun
[04:34.60]If you touch me
[04:38.11]You'll understand what happiness is
[04:44.49]Look
[04:45.76]A new day has begun
