Stardust

And now the purple dusk of twilight time

Steals across the meadow of my heart

High up in the sky the little stars climb

Always reminding me that we're apart



You wandered down the lane and far away

Leaving me a song that will not die

Love is now a stardust of yesterday

The music of the years gone by



Sometimes i wonder why i spend

The lonely nights dreaming of a song

The melody haunts my reverie

And i am once again with you



When our love was new

And each kiss an inspiration

But that was long ago

And now my consolation

Is in the stardust of a song



Beside the garden wall

When stars are bright

You are in my arms

The nightingale tells his 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
