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
