Lyrics

Him 


Music: Hubert Parry,  Lyrics: Richard Stilgoe, arr. Andrew Lloyd Webber,  with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra


When late at night I fall asleep
With all the lights down dim
I let my mind soar up above
Go searching for the one I love

I dream all night of him
I dream all night of Him

He stays with me the whole night through
Through space and time we swim
He loves me in a thousand ways
The nights help me to face the days

I dream all night of him
I dream all night of him

I wait each night for sleep to arrive
The darkness is when I come alive
And in the morning when I wake
The day outside looks grim
I look back on the night that's gone
It gives me strength to carry on

I dream all night of him
I dream all night of him

I never sleep alone for I seem
To have him with me in my dreams
Though every morning when I wake
The day outside looks grim
I look around and then I see
Him laying there; he's next to me

I didn't dream of him
I didn't dream of him 

 

Memory From Cats


Music Andrew Lloyd Webber, Lyrics TS Eliot & Trevor Nunn

Midnight, not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her mem'ry?
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan
Mem'ry
All alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
Life was beautiful then
I remember
The time I knew what happiness was
Let the mem'ry live again
Ev'ry street lamp
Seems to beat
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters
And a street lamp gutters
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 dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new life will begin
Burnt out ends of smokey days
The stale cold smell of morning
The street lamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is dawning
Touch me
It's so easy to leave me
All alone with my mem'ry
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is
Look a new day has begun.
