Liane Carroll - Stardust

And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Flickers through the memory of my heart
High up in the sky the little stars climb
Always reminding me that we're apart
You wander down the lane and far away
Leaving me a song that will not die
Love is now the stardust of yesterday
The memory of years gone by.

Sometimes I wonder, why I spend
The lonely nights
Dreaming of a song
Well 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 the garden wall, when the stars they are so bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale
Tells his fairytale
Of paradise, where those roses grew
Oh though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
The stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain.

Beside the garden wall, when the stars they are so bright
Oh and you are in my arms
The nightingale
Tells his fairytale
Of paradise, where those roses grew
Oh though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
The stardust melody
A memory of love's refrain.
