STARDUST

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 wander down the lane and far away

Leaving me a song that will not die

Love is like the stardust of yesterday

The music of the years gone by                                          

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

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 stars are bright

You are in my arms

The nightngale he tells his little fairytale

Of paradise where roses grew

Though I dream in vain

In my heart it will remain

My stardust melody

The melody of love’s refrain

 

STARDUST

Natalie Cole

 

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 wander down the lane and far away

Leaving me a song that will not die

Love is like the stardust of yesterday

The music of the years gone by                                          

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

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 stars are bright

You are in my arms

The nightngale he tells his little fairytale

Of paradise where roses grew

Though I dream in vain

In my heart it will remain

My stardust melody

The melody of love’s refrain
