Hoagy Carmichael
Stardust
[Verse 1]
And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steal across the meadow of my heart
High up in the sky, the little stars climb
Oh, which reminds me that we're apart

[Verse 2]
You wander down 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

[Bridge]
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
When our love was new
And each kiss, an inspiration
But that was long ago
Now my consolation
Is in the stardust of a song

[Verse 3]
Beside a garden wall
While 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
[Outro]
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain
The memory of love's refeain
