Has the (1)________ lost her memory?
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight, the withered (2)____________ 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 (3)____________________ seems to beat
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters and the street lamp gutters
And soon
It will be morning

Daylight
I (4)________ wait for the sunrise

Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
A streetlamp dies; (6)______________ night is over
Another day is dawning...

Touch me!
It's so easy to leave me
All alone (7)________ the memory
Of my days in the sun...
If you (8)__________ me, you'll understand (9)________ happiness is
Look, a new day has begun.
