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
Beside a garden wall
When stars are bright, you are in my arms
The nightingale, tells his fairy tale
Of paradise where roses bloom
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it always will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain
