Stardust

I spent the afternoon dancing around my living room with a woman who wore black eyeliner that had run down her cheek.

Sometimes I wonder why I spend
Such lonely nights
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
Now that you know was long ago

Oh beside a garden wall
When stars are bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairy tale
A paradise where roses bloom
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody
Oh memory
