Sometimes I wonder Why I spend my 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 Oh, but that was long ago And now my consolation is in the stardust of a song Beside the garden wall, when stars were bright You are in my arms The nightingale told his fairytale Of paradise, where roses grew Though I dream in vain In my heart, it will always remain My stardust melody The memory of love's refrain
