Silence (alt - Midnight)
Not a sound from the pavement,
Has the moon lost her memory?
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight, the withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan.
Every street-lamp seems to beat
A fatalistic warning,
Someone mutters, and the street-lamp gutters,
And soon it will be morning.
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
Grizabella:
Memory
Turn your face to the moonlight
Let your memory lead you
Open up enter in
If you find there the meaning of what happiness is
Then a new life will begin
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
Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
The streetlamp dies, another night is over
Another day is dawning
Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I mustn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin
Jemima/Sillabub:
Sunlight through the trees in summer
Endless masquerading
Both:
Like a flower as the dawn is breaking
Grizabella:
The memory is fading
Touch me
It's so easy to leave me
All alone with the memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is
Look -
A new day has begun
