Stardust

And now the purple dusk of twilight time Steads across the meadows 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 the 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 and 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 rain In my heart it will remain my stardust melody The memory of loves refrain
