Kurt:
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
Memory
All alone in the moonlight
I can dream of the old days
Life was beautiful then
I remember
The time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again
Every streetlamp seems to beat
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters and the streetlamp sputters
And soon it will be morning
Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I musn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory, too
And a new day will begin
Maggie:
Burnt out ends of smokey days
The stale, cold smell of morning
Kurt and Maggie:
The streetlamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is dawning
Kurt and Maggie with the Elderly:
Touch me
It's so easy to leave me
All alone with the memory
Kurt with the Elderly (Maggie):
Of my days in the sun (Days in the sun)
Kurt:
If you touch me
Kurt, Maggie and the Elderly:
You'll understand what happiness is
Look, a new day
Kurt (Maggie with the Elderly):
Has begun (Has begun)
