Information: Following conventional lyric notation practice, words are broken into syllables to interpret the phrasing of the lyrics. Each word syllable in the lyrics below represents a note on the vocal part of this arrangement. A hyphen '-' or trailing hyphens following a word syllable indicates that the word syllable is extended over more than one note. ========================================================= Memory - Elaine Paige(Cats - Broadway) ========================================================= INTRO . . . . . . Mid-night, not a sound from the pave-ment
Has the moon lost her mem-'ry? She is smi-ling a-lone
In the lamp-light the with-ered leaves col-lect at my feet
And the wind be-gins to moan
Mem-'ry, all a-lone in the moon-light I can smile at the old days, I was beau-ti-ful then
I re-mem-ber the time I knew what hap-pi-ness was Let the mem-'ry live - a-gain
Ev-'ry street lamp seems to beat a fa-ta-list-ic warn-ing
Some-one mut-ters and a street lamp gut-ters and soon it will be mor-ning
Day-light, I must wait for the sun-rise, I must think of a new life and I must-n't give in
When the dawn comes to-night will be a mem-or-y too And a new day will be-gin
Mem-'ry, all a-lone in the moon-light I can smile at the old days, I was beau-ti-ful then
I re-mem-ber the time I knew what hap-pi-ness was Let the mem-'ry live - a-gain
Burnt out ends of smok-ey days, the stale cold smell of morn-ing The street lamp dies,
an-oth-er night is ov-er, an-oth-er day is dawn-ing
Touch me, it's so ea-sy to leave me All a-lone with the mem-'ry of my days in the sun
If you touch me you'll un-der-stand what hap-pi-ness is Look a new day has be-gun
