Stardust Shirley Ellis

[Verse 1]
And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart
Love is now the stardust of yesterday
The music of the years gone by

[Bridge]
Sometimes I wonder why I wonder why 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

[Verse 2]
At night at night Beside a garden wall
When stars are bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairytale
A paradise where roses bloom
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody (Stardust melody)
That stardust melody (Stardust melody)
The me-e-e-e-lody of love's refrain
