Daylight, see the dew on the sunflower
                    And a rose that is fading
               Roses wither away
                                        
Like the sunflower I yearn to turn my face to the dawn
                   I am waiting for the day

                          Midnight, not a sound on the pavement
                                        Has the moon lost a 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 smile at the old days
                I was beautiful then
                           I remember the time I knew what happiness was
                  Let the memory live again

         
Every street lamp seems to beat 
               fainter listening warning
                   Someone mutters and a street lamp flutters
                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 [bad word] tonight will be a memory too
                 And a new day will begin

                       
Burnt out ends of smokey days
                  The stale cold smell of morning
                                            
street lamp 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 day has begun
