Midnight. Not a sound from the pavement.
Has the moon lost her Fmemory? She is smiling aEmlone.
In the Dmlamplight the withered leaves colAmlect at my feet.
And the Gwind beFgins to Cmoan.
2.                          C  Am  
Memory. All alone in the moonlight,
I can smile at the Fold days. Life was beautiful Emthen.
I reDmmember the time I knew what Amhappiness was,
let the Gmemory Flive agCain.

I must think of a Fnew life and I mustn´t give Emin.
When the Dmdawn comes tonight will be a Ammemory too and
a Gnew day Fwill Cbegin.

I can smile at the old days. Life was beautiful then.

Bridge:

Em Dm Em Dm Em C D G Em A7

Every street lamp seems to beat a fatalistic warning. Someone mutters

I must think of a new life and I mustn´t give in.

When the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too and

G F C

a new day will begin.
