Stardust
Keely Smith Lyrics

And now the purple dusk of twilight time
As the sun sets and the sky gets darker, I feel a sense of loneliness and sadness in my heart.

Steals across the meadows of my heart
This sadness spreads like a shadow throughout my heart.

High up in the sky the little stars climb
As night falls, small stars quietly fill the sky above me.

Always reminding me that we're apart
Even the stars seem to remind me that we're not together, and our love has faded away.

You wander down the lane and far away
You have gone far away, leaving me alone and yearning for you.

Leaving me a song that will not die
The only thing you left me is a memory of the song we shared, but it's one that will never fade or disappear from my mind.

Love is now the stardust of yesterday
Our love has become a distant memory that's as ephemeral and ungraspable as stardust.

The music of the years gone by.
The only remnants of our love are the sweet melodies that still linger in my mind, evoking memories of the happier times we shared together.

Sometimes I wonder, how I spend
I often think about how I pass the time in my lonely nights.

The lonely nights
These are the nights when I feel the most alone and desperate for your absence.

Dreaming of a song
I often dream about the song we shared, and the happy moments we had together.

The melody
The tune of our song is so vivid and memorable that I can't get it out of my head.

Haunts my reverie
The melody lingers in my mind, and haunts me during my reflections and daydreams.

And I am once again with you
In these moments, I feel like I'm transported back in time when we were still together and in love.

When our love was new
I'm reminded of our happier times when our love was fresh and blazing with passion.

And each kiss an inspiration
Every kiss we shared was magical and inspiring, filling me with joy and happiness.

But that was long ago
But those times are now in the distant past, fading with each passing day.

And now my consolation is in the stardust of a song
The only solace I have is in the memories of our song and the nostalgia it evokes.

Besides the garden wall, when stars are bright
I often imagine you in my arms outside, near the garden wall, beneath a sky full of bright stars.

You are in my arms
In these moments, I can almost feel your presence in my arms, as if you were really there next to me.

The nightingale
The bird's sweet and romantic song fills me with longing and sadness.

Tells his fairytale
In my mind, the bird's melody tells a wistful and romantic story of our love and the memories we shared.

Of paradise, where roses grew
The bird's song is so beautiful and evocative that it transports me to a romantic paradise where roses bloom and love flourished.

Though I dream in vain
Despite my best efforts, I know deep down that these dreams are just in my head, and that our love is truly dead and gone.

In my heart it will remain
But even though our love is gone, it still holds a special place in my heart, and I will never forget the moments we shared together.

My stardust melody
In the end, all I have left are memories of our song, evocative and bittersweet like a trail of stardust in the night sky.

The memory of love's refrain.
Our love may have ended, but the melody of our song will stay with me always, beautiful and heart-wrenching like the refrain of a heartfelt ballad.
