Sometimes I wonder why I spend The lonely nights dreamin' 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 Oh, but that was long ago And now my consolation Is in the stardust of a song And beside a garden wall When the stars were bright You were in my arms The nightingale told its fairy tale Of paradise where roses grew Though I dream in vain In my heart it always will remain My stardust melody The memory of love's refrain Though I dream in vain In my heart it always will remain My stardust melody The memory of love's refrain The memory of love's refrain
