Stardust Lyrics - Gordon Jenkins

And now the purple dusk of twilight time 

Steals across the meadows of my heart 

High up in the sky the little stars climb 

Always reminding me that we're apart 

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 

Sometimes I wonder, I spend 

The lonely nights 

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 

And 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 

Of paradise, where roses grew 

Though I dream in vain 

In my heart it will remain 

My stardust melody 

The memory of love's refrain
