Stardust

And now, the purple dust of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart
High up in the sky, those little stars climb
Always reminding me that we're apart
You wander down the lake, and far away
Leaving me a song that will not die
Love is now the stardust of yesterday
The music of the ears 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
When 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 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
