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