G5      G5      G5    G5         C5 
And now the purple dusk of twilight time 
 B5                              E5     E5    E5     E5   
Steals across the meadows of my heart. 
 A5            C5       G5      G5    E5 
High up in the sky the little stars climb, 
 F#5       F#5             D5    F5  D5  
Always reminding me that we're  a - part. 
      G5      G5        G5      G5   C5 
You wandered down the lane and far away. 
 B5                              E5   E5  E5   E5  
Leaving me a song that will not die.  
 A5              C5          G5  G5 E5 
Love is now the stardust of yes-ter-day, 
    D5    G5      A5  C5  G5   C5   G5 
The music  of  the years gone  by. 
 
Melody: 
G5   G5   G5 C5    C5     A5       C5         F5  
Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely night 
 F5                     G5      G5   E5  B5    E5 
Dreaming of a song.   The mel-o-dy haunts my reverie,               
   A5    E5  F5        A5    F5   A5 
And I am once again with you. 
          D5  F5  D5           D5      G5     D5  G5   
When our love was new, and each kiss an in-spi-ra-tion, 
     A5           G5    A5           G5 
But that was long ago; now my consolation  
D5        A5      C5    D5     D5 
Is in the stardust of a song. 
   C5    C5     A5        C5            F5 
Beside a garden wall when stars are bright,  
F5                 G5   G5    E5  B5            E5 
You are in my arms; the nightingale tells his fairy tale 
   A5    E5       F5     A5     F5     A5 
Of par-a-dise where ro-ses grew. 
             D5   A5  D5          G5    G5 E5   B5  F#5   B5 
Though I dream in vain, in my heart  it  will re-main: 
   C5             C5    E5  A5       
My stardust mel-o-dy 
        D5     C5  C5 (IV)   G5    A5 alt   C5    G5 
the memory of love's   re  -  frain.
