Boyle, Susan - Memory Lyrics
Daylight
See the dew on the sunflower
And a rose that is fading
Roses whither away
Like the sunflower
I am waiting for the day
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
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
Every streetlamp
Seems to beat a fatalistic warning
Someone mutters
And the streetlamp gutters
And soon it will be morning
Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I musn'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 cold smell of morning
The streetlamp dies, another night is over
Another day is dawning
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

Boyle, Susan Memory Comments
Belissima
I hate to say it, but she DID bungle this performance at the beginning, and deserved 2nd place because of it. However, she has since proved herself to be a powerhouse vocalist and seasoned performer!
This is what happens when up turn up and tell your / the truth
Die Gefühle fehlen. Eine unterdurchnittliche Performance
Great, great, great!!!
I think she might have just lost who she really is. On the first audition on BGT she seemed happier even though some people didnt accept her then. But still she sings better than all the Stars.
Here you go: 3:14
yikes her voice is not appealing for this song. she needed to hold her notes a little longer. if she can't then she should've found a different song.
Look how confident she looks yaaas Susan hold your head up high!
My fav version of memory .thank u Susan
anyone in 2019??
Go Susan Boyle your the great singer
Music starts at 1:42. You are welcome.
Cats trailer bring me to here
Unpopular opinion, Susan Boyle doesn't even sing that good, she just sings better than what they expected from an "ugly" person...
Who here from the Cats trailer?
Me :/ Jennifer Hudson did pretty good ngl
I came from Patty Ferrell singing it
Bet you got fleas from watching that trailer.
Keep away!
SPORK yeah but she looked scary
She’s a remarkable singer, for sure. But I just don’t feel this song suited her at all.
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
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 down comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin
Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
A street lamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is downing
Touch me
It is 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
She unveiled the prejudices in every one of us, that we'd always judge the book by its cover. She's like a beautiful wonderful story never told, unread, unnoticed and wrapped in an aged cover that we all have mistaken for less valueble. She's a hope for everyone who dare to hope and work their dreams, defying all odds and critics. She represents the old quality of the British people to never surrender and never give up. She's free at last to soar and fly free in her pursuit of glory in her singing career.
I though that this is the best singer and she’s the best her voice is like an angel so pure I love her so much I don’t agree she didn’t win I think that the judges could had voted and don’t the public
the best of the show
She hit notes in this so perfectly it transforms this into anything I have heard in opera, yes the beginning was messed up but she followed up with an extraordinary performance, like all beautiful ans powerful pieces it moves your heart and she didnt waste it, she was wonderful
angel'"s voice
Ela me fez acreditar que sonhos são possiveis ...Parabens Susan Boyle ...
ich freu mich so für Susan, dass sie eine Karriere gemacht hat <3 Sie hat es so sehr verdient <3
スーザンボイルさんはまさにグリザベラ
最初は見た目のせいで周りに馬鹿にされていたけれど歌声を披露してみんなに認められて賞賛されていく様子がまさに・・・
だからこそスーザンさんが歌うこの曲が本当に心に沁みますね
大サビなんて特に涙が出ます
Forgetten singer by modern world,now we just need Justin Bieber only?? This pure music to the ears...i've been at moon listening tis..haha
2019 anyone?!
She's just amazing like no one
I love coming back to this video!! I watched Susan on the AGT: The Champions last night, and she was SUPERB! She has grown so much as a performer. LOVE Susan Boyle!
2:48-3:06 me when im trying to pull an all nighter for an exam.
Pitchy, pitchy, pitchy. I am so glad she pulled it together. Considering the enormous expectations, she did fantastic.
I love Susan Boyle her voice O M G
Esto es música....clásica....perdura en el tiempo
she is an angel
belle voix
When she sings that second half I break into tears every time ! My mothers funeral song . It causes my heart to skip !!!
I swear when she sings touch me its so easy to leave me alone with my memories of my days in the sun ! I think of my beautiful mother ! Please know rude comments i'm having a hard enough time already !!!
Uh oh. Started out on the wrong foot
If you listen to other artists sing this you will hear they are far far better. This feels rushed and amateurish. Not great.
Muitos riram de você, com toda certeza por sua aparência, e nem imaginava o quanto você é especial, é Deus dá a cada um Dom, e ele te deu a você o DOM DE CANTAR E COM SUA VOZ CANTANDO FAZ CALMAR OS CORAÇÕES PERTURBADO E MACHUCADO, você é maravilhosa é um DOM DE DEUS, CONTINUE ASSIM.
The beginning was quite scratchy but she has her moments and in those, she's amazing.
The queen of "got talent", she wins...
Una excelente voz, gran talento, buena persona. La adoro. Bendiciones querida Susan.
Hello, I'm a student of English, I like the British accent, I would like to know what the presenters say, I do not understand very well, I liked someone to write the words that the presenters say from 4:30 to 5 minutes
Such a beautiful song honestly I could listen to it all day.

I admire and like Susan wish her good luck was off key voice is nothing great about it no comparising to Elaine page or Opera people with little talent make it and great gifted people not God gave her this luck
I cried when she said ppl think she's worthless!
Susan Boyle is very AMAZING ✌🏻💯👌🏻🙌🏻
MaCavity and his agents disliked this. 😔
The ending was good but the rest of the song was just mediocre. Just listen and compare to how Barbara Streisand sang. I don't know why the judges were so enthusiastic.
Meravigliosa...alla faccia di chi ci giudica per la taglia xxl :)
Susan should have won
Fantastic
If she sang this in the final she would've won
Great regards dear Susan - отлично!!!
her voice is phenomenal but I think she could enunciate more
You did it Susan ... You proved them all wrong 😘
Amazing for being an amatour
Pitchy, horrible pacing, voice cracks, definitely overrated
Alex has a bit of a point here, the beginning was pretty scratchy and there were moments throughout it when I thought she could've waited a moment, and while (unless proven otherwise) I don't quite think he could sing it as good as her, that doesn't matter. You don't have to be able to paint to tell a nice painting from a bad one.
However, I don't think she's overrated. She has her moments where her voice is just amazing, and remember that nobody on X-Factor is professional (yet). There are always going to be tiny flaws, and I mean, she did in fact not win. Her story is amazing and she does deserve every little piece of fame she got.
Alex Field....if you can sing this song....put it on your channel??
We're still waiting to hear your version, dickhead 😉👌
And still waiting for this jerk to sing better, if not, as good as susan
Alex field it is 2019 and your irrelevant ass is nowhere to be seen. Pathetic are you? Lol
i still think she should of won.
ELA É D+ SOU FÃ DESTE DO COMEÇO DA CARREIRA DELA....
I am sorry but there is absolutely no feeling in her version of this song, no emotion... She could do so much more with this.
She was pitchy in places and the start was iffy as hell but the amount of pressure on that women would have been insane.
She has excellent vibrato for being an amateur at the time, especially because this song is sung with such a strong American accent and she sings with her Scottish accent. I really don't know why everyone dislikes her, she's got a very lovely voice.
Delaney M. This song was originally sung by an English woman, not American.
@mort1990 It didn't hit in the UK... then they went to the states, it hit then they came back.
In the begining of the song her voice were bad!
so what?
Not as bad as your grammar
Go on people be a bitch
When I think of big female stars I think of Beyoncé Shirley Bassey Tina Turner Aretha Franklin Natalie Cole come on get real
And I seriously think she is a bit touched I don't understand why people say she has an amazing voice it's a very average strangled voice
Geoffrey - You obviously don't like Susan - which is fair enough - but now, just give it a rest - after all Susan has a worldwide following - and what you think is of little consequence. Most, though not you, think she is immensely talented and her record sales tend to support that view.
I wonder if she could play Grizabella on stage? That would be amazing.
+Shaina Punim Barnett لا بالعكس المقطع ما يحضك .. تخلي
Good call there.
53rdAndThird she isn't good enough
I think that would be amazing!
it brings tears to my eyes to watch this woman sing; just amazing
YOU CANNOT JUST DO VIBRATO EVERY SINGLE NOTE
+Ahmet R YILDIRIM Knowing Claire as a performer, I'm sure she'd put much more emotions in the actual performance than she does in the studio recording! That's the problem I often have with studio recs - they have amazing quality, but are often deprived from emotions. I think Elaine sounded much more emotional on live recording than on the official CD
@Weronika K yep! I never really liked the original London Cast recording of Cats with all the cuts and stuff. Elaine is so much better live and she's also great at the movie version
@Ahmet R YILDIRIM I listen to Memory from the CD from time to time, but much much prefer the movie version! And the lyrics <3
Yes definitely! Especially the first time Grizabella sings is much better in the movie with the instrumental arrangement!
Emmy Yildirim she didn’t do vibrato in every sing note. Do you have a hearing problem?
@lostintimeline Don't try to pass him off on us Americans. Justin Beiber's Canadian. I mean, some good stuff has come from Canada, but not him. Never him.
Susan Boyle, you are a consummate singer and a wonderful lady. Congratulations on your success...
The first words of the song her voice cracked. But it was still amazing!!!
she's amazing
83 people whom disliked this are probably people whom liked crappy music
Oskar Fors you go up sing, your voice not match Susan Boyle voice explosion beautiful! Today she highest viewer in the world!
In my opinion she sang the song pretty badly, looking from the original it was quite useless
I don't understand why so many people hate Susan! She's amazing and has an amazing voice!

Katy. Cuz they doumb. But shes really really awesome.
Her voice is not that amazing!
7.5/10 max!
@Desert Wolf "Cuz they duomb"? How bout you stfu now
Katy, why you say so many people hate susan???? Who?
2:08 Something is Whrong isnt there?
*wrong and yes there was. It was probably a technical difficukty
+ILOVEJACKSEPTICEYE *difficulty
What a beautiful voice!
I love her smile.
No disrespect but lost it in the first few bars. Takes years of experience to recover from that. Xx just wasnt good enough to come first xx
+Hefin Rosser I think it may have just been nerves, she was an amateur at this point, and this is an extremely difficult song to sing live.
I agree
I agree
I love this song since I was a child... "Pamięć" by Zdzisława Sośnicka....
Love her smile at 3:20. Pure joy.
She really struggles during the first words of the song and sings them off key, but ends strong.
Fantastic voice..
beautiful
@ 3:35 is the moment we were all waiting for. Amazing. Love Susan Boyle!

U r pretty sexy
Hey lovelosss ithink im in love with u
I subscribed
Love it! Still amazing and humbling.
Really Inspirational!!
Boom!
As much as I dislike Cowell for the "X factor" brand...some good things come along...like SuBo
3:34 gives me chills, amazing
Notice how the Judges treated her like she was royalty this time. She is so humble its unreal. She is the real deal.
Just because she didn't win number 1 does not mean she isn't the best. Sometimes younger groups of people like younger acts and they'll vote on the age thing. SUSAN is 1st place. the world knows it.
Wayne Ohio and now you’ve done what you said cuz I’m assuming ur older so think she’s 1st place....the irony
just for comments (4 years ago)
SPORK ik but still....
The younger version won because they can live longer not like old people like her thats too unfair i hate the votings
