Stardust    Mitchell Parisch, Hoagy Carmichael 1929

 

Chorus

Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely night dreaming of a song,
That melody, haunts my reverie and I am once again with you,
When our love was new, and each kiss an inspiration.
Oh, 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 nightingale tells his fairytale of paradise where roses grew.
Though I dream in vain in my heart it will remain, my stardust melody,
The memory of love's refrain.
