memory Music & words by Barbra StreisandPerformed by Barbra Streisandsound on & autorun

midnightnot a sound from the pavementhas the moon lost her memory

she is smiling alonein the lamplightthe withered leaves collect at my feet

and the wind begins to moan

memoryall alone in the moonlighti can dream of the old days

life was beautiful theni remember the time i knew what happiness was

let the memory live again

every street lamp seems to beata fatalistic warning

someone mutters and the street lamp sputtersand soon it will be morning

daylight i must wait for the sunrise

i must think of a new lifeand i mustnt give in when the dawn comes

tonight will be a memory tooand a new day will begin

instrumental

burnt out ends of smoky days

the stale cold smell of morninga street lamp dies

another night is overanother day is dawning

touch meits so easy to leave meall alone with my memory

of my days in the sunif you touch me

youll understand what happiness islook a new day

has begun
