Sometimes I wonder why I spend The lonely nights Dreaming of a song And the melody haunts my reverie And I am once again with you When our love was new And each kiss an inspiration But that was long ago And now my consolation Is in the stardust of a song Beside a garden wall When stars are bright And you are in my arms And the nightingale tells his fairy tale Of paradise where roses bloom Though I dream in vain In my heart there always will remain My stardust melody The memory of love's refrain Though I dream in vain In my heart there always will remain My stardust melody The memory of love's refrain
