Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sometimes I wonder why I spend
The lonely nights dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you
[Verse 2]
When our love was new
And each kiss an inspiration
But that was long ago
And now my consolation is in the stardust of a song
[Verse 3]
Beside the garden wall
When stars are bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairytale
Of paradise where roses grew
[Chorus]
And though I dream in vain
In my heart there always will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain
[Chorus]
And though I dream in vain
In my heart there always will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain
[Chorus]
And though I dream in vain
In my heart there always will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain
Written by: Hoagy Carmichael, Mitchell Parish
