Memory是由作曲家安德鲁•洛伊•韦伯根据T•S•艾略特的诗集《老负鼠的猫经》及其他诗歌所编写的一部音乐剧Cats中的歌曲。

　　它虽然一向没有评论家的钟爱，却是历史上最成功的音乐剧之一，而且，自1981年在伦敦首演以来，它曾经被翻译成二十多种文字在全世界各个角落演出。

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 street lamp seems to beat

A fatalistic warning

Someone mutters and the street lamp sputters

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 court smell of morning

A street lamp dies

Another night is over

Another day is dawning

Touch me,

It is so easy to leave me

All alone with the memory

Of my days in the sun

If you'll touch me,

You'll understand what happiness is

Look, a new day has begun...
