Sillabub: 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


Munkstrap (spoken): Now Old Deuteronomy, just before dawn
Through a silence you feel you could cut with a knife
Announces the cat who can now be reborn
And come back to a different Jellicle life


Grizabella: Memory, turn your face to the moonlight
Let your memory lead you, open up, enter in
If you find there the meaning of what happiness is
Then a new life will begin


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


Burnt out ends of smokey days
The stale cold smell of morning
The street lamp dies, another night is over
Another day is dawning


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


Sillabus: Sunlight, through the trees in summer
Endless masquerading
Grizabela&Sillabub: Like a flower as the dawn is breaking
Grizabella: The memory is fading


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
