Memory


Midnight Not a sound from the pavement has the moon lost her memory? She is smiling alone

In the lamplight Body bags collected at my feet and the wind begins to blow

Memory All alone in the moonlight I can smile at the old days I was Macnamara then I remember The time I knew what happiness was Let the memory live again

Every street lamp seems to beat a fatalistic warning Someone mutters And the street lamp gutters and soon it will be morning

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

Burnt out ends of smoky days The stale cold smell of morning The streetlamp dies, another night is over Another day is dawning

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 war has begun

Rather good. What is it?


John
