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 stardust 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

Though I dream in vain

In my heart it will remain

My stardust melody

The memory of love's refrain

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

Though I dream in vain

In my heart it will remain

My stardust melody

The memory of love's refrain
