Memory

Your rating:
At last, the time has come for Old Deuteronomy to make <br />
                 the Jellicle Choice and decide which one cat will be reborn <br />
                 into a new Jellicle life. At that moment, Grizabella reappears. <br />
                 Again she recalls her "Memory" of how things used to be. She <br />
                 pleads to her brothers and sisters, yearning to come back to <br />
                 them. This time, through a greater appreciation of tolerance, <br />
                 the cats accept her back into the tribe.<br />
<br />
                 GRIZABELLA: <br />
                 Daylight, see the dew on the sunflower <br />
                 And a rose that is fading <br />
                 Roses wither away <br />
                 Like the sunflower I yearn to turn my face to the dawn <br />
                 I am waiting for the day <br />
                   <br />
                 SOLO: <br />
                 Now Old Deuteronomy, just before dawn <br />
                 Through a silence you feel you could cut with a knife <br />
                 Announces the cat who can now be reborn <br />
                 And come back to a different jellicle life <br />
                   <br />
                 GRIZABELLA: <br />
                 Memory, turn your face to the moonlight <br />
                 Let your memory lead you <br />
                 Open up, enter in <br />
                 If you find there the meaning of what happiness is <br />
                 Then a new life will begin <br />
                   <br />
                 Memory, all alone in the moonlight <br />
                 I can smile at the old days <br />
                 I was beautiful then <br />
                 I remember the time I knew what happiness was <br />
                 Let the memory live again <br />
                   <br />
                 Burnt out ends of smokey days <br />
                 The stale cold smell of morning <br />
                 The streetlamp dies, another night is over <br />
                 Another day is dawning <br />
                   <br />
                 Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise <br />
                 I must think of a new life
