The nightingale tells his fairy tale
The memory of love's refrain
Love is now a stardust of yesterday
In my heart it will remain
Sometimes I wonder why I spend
My stardust melody
Now my consolation is in the stardust of a song
The lonely night dreamin' of a song?
But that was long ago
Of paradise where roses grew
High up in the skies, the little stars climb
You wandered down the lane and far away
The music of the years gone by
Though I dream in vain
The melody haunts my reverie
When our love was new
Leaving me a song that will not die
Always reminding me that we're apart
When stars are bright, you are in my arms
My stardust melody
Though I dream in vain
And each kiss an inspiration
And I am once again with you
In my heart it will remain
Beside a garden wall
