Stardust

And now the purple dust of twilight time

Steals across the meadows of my heart

High up in the sky, the little stars cryin'

Always reminding me that we're apart

You wander down the line and far away

Leaving me a song that will not die

Love is now the stardust of yesterday

The music of the years gone by

Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely night

Dreamin' of a song, the melody hounds my reverie

And I am once again with you

When our love was new

And each kiss an inspiration

But that was long ago

Now my consolation is in the stardust of a song

Beside a garden wall, when stars are bright

You are in my arms, the nightingale tells his fairytale

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

Though I dream in vain

In my heart it will remain

My stardust melody

The memory of love's refrain
