Hoagy Carmichael
Sometimes I wonder, how I spend
The lonely night dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you
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, but that was long ago
Now my consolation is in the stardust of a song
And each kiss an inspiration
But, 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
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
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love’s refrain
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love’s refrain
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love’s refrain
STARDUST 1927 |
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,
AND 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 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.
