|
And now the purple dusk of twilight time |
|
Steals across the meadows of my heart |
|
High up in the sky the little stars climb |
|
Always reminding me that we're apart |
|
You wander 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 night 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 |
|
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 fairy tale |
|
A paradise where roses bloom |
|
Though I dream in vain |
|
In my heart it will remain |
|
My stardust melody |
|
The memory of love's refrain |
