stardust

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
