Stardust

And now the purple dust of twilight time

Steals across the meadows of my heart

Now the little stars the little stars pine

Always reminding me that we're apart

You wander down the lane and far away

Leaving me a love that cannot die

Love is now the stardust of yesterday

The music of the years gone by

Sometimes I wonder why I spend

The lonely nights

Dreaming of a song

That melody haunts my reverie

And I am once again with you

When our love was new

And each kiss an inspiration

Ah but that was long ago

Now my consolation

Is in the stardust of a song

Beside a garden wall

Where stars are bright

You are in my arms

That nightingale tells its fairy tale

Of paradise where roses grew

Though I dream in vain

In my heart it will remain

My stardust melody

The memory of love's refrain

Sometimes I wonder why I spend

The lonely nights

Dreaming of a song

That melody haunts my reverie

And I am once again with you

Though I dream in vain

In my heart it will remain

My stardust melody

The memory of love's refrain
