Cab Calloway
Stardust
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
That was long ago
When each kiss was an inspiration;
Now you were in my arms
And my consolation
Is in the stardust of a song
Beside a garden wall
When the stars are bright
You are in my arms;
The little nightengale sings 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
When I'm all alone
And thought I was with you
I get so lonesome, honey, just for you
I love to hear you sing that song
