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 wandered down the lane and far away, leaving me a song that will not die
Love is now the Star Dust of yesterday. The music of the years gone by.
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 star dust 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 grew
Tho I dream in vain in my heart it will remain My Star Dust melody
The memory of love's refrain.
