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 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 year 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 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
a paradise where roses grew.
Though I dream in vain
in my heart it will remain,
My stardust melody
the memory of love`s refrain.
