Stardust

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.

That was long ago,

When each kiss was an inspiration;

Now you were in my arms,

And my consolation

Is in the stardust of a song,

Beside a garden wall,

When the stars are bright

You are in my arms;

The little nightengale sings 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.

When I'm all alone

And thought I was with you,

I get so lonesome, honey, just for you,

I love to hear you sing that song.
