The best way to texture a cube in openGL

What is the best way (lowest memory, fastest speed) for a cube texture? after a while I found this solution:

data structure:

GLfloat Cube::vertices[] =
 {-0.5f, 0.0f, 0.5f,   0.5f, 0.0f, 0.5f,   0.5f, 1.0f, 0.5f,  -0.5f, 1.0f, 0.5f,
  -0.5f, 1.0f, -0.5f,  0.5f, 1.0f, -0.5f,  0.5f, 0.0f, -0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f, -0.5f,
  0.5f, 0.0f, 0.5f,   0.5f, 0.0f, -0.5f,  0.5f, 1.0f, -0.5f,  0.5f, 1.0f, 0.5f,
  -0.5f, 0.0f, -0.5f,  -0.5f, 0.0f, 0.5f,  -0.5f, 1.0f, 0.5f, -0.5f, 1.0f, -0.5f
  };

 GLfloat Cube::texcoords[] = { 0.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0, 0.0,1.0,
                               0.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0, 0.0,1.0,
                               0.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0, 0.0,1.0,
                               0.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0, 0.0,1.0
                             };

 GLubyte Cube::cubeIndices[24] = {0,1,2,3, 4,5,6,7, 3,2,5,4, 7,6,1,0,
                                  8,9,10,11, 12,13,14,15};

draw function:

        glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
        glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture);
        glHint(GL_PERSPECTIVE_CORRECTION_HINT, GL_NICEST);
        glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
        glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
        glColor3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);

        glEnableClientState(GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY);
        glEnableClientState(GL_VERTEX_ARRAY);

        glTexCoordPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, 0, texcoords);
        glVertexPointer(3, GL_FLOAT, 0, vertices);

        glDrawElements(GL_QUADS, 24, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, cubeIndices);
        glDisableClientState(GL_VERTEX_ARRAY);
        //glDisableClientState(GL_COLOR_ARRAY);
        glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);

As you can see, the result is correct: cube

but to repeat this result I have to redefine some vertex ( verticesthere are 16 3D points in the array ), otherwise the texture will not be displayed in the DrawElement function.

Does anyone know a better way to texture a cube in an array of vertices?

I came across the same issue when working with opengl. My research showed that there was no other way to do this, because each vertex could have only one texture coordinate associated with it.

out vec2 texcoords;
texcoords=normalize(vertex_data.xy)
