|
And now the purple dust of twilight time
|
Steals across the meadow of myheart.
|
Highup in the sky, thelittle stars climb,
|
Always reminding me that we're apart.
|
You wander 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 revery
|
And am once again withyou,
|
When our love was new, and kiss an inspiration.
|
|
But that was long ago,
|
Now my consolation is in the stardust of a song.
|
Beside the garden wall, when stars are bright, you are in my arms,
|
The nightingale tells his fairytale, 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.
