4 = blow hole 4-4 = draw hole 4’ = bend< = slide in
And now the pur-ple dusk of twi-light time
Steals a-cross the mea-dows of my heart
High up in the sky the lit-tle stars climb
Al-ways re-mind-ing me that we're a-part
You wan-der down the lane and far a-way
Leav-ing me a song that will not die
Love is now the star-dust of yes-ter-day
The mu-sic of the years gone by
Chorus
Some-times I won-der why I spend
The lone-ly night
Dream-ing of a song.
The mel-o-dy haunts my rev-er-ie
And I am once a-gain with you.
When our love was new,
and each kiss an in-spir-a-tion.
But that was long a-go,
Now my con-so-la-tion
Is in the star-dust of a song.
Be-side the gar-den wall, when stars are bright
You are in my arms
The night-in-gale tells his fair-y tale
Of par-a-dise where ros-es grew.
Though I dream in vain,
in my heart it will re-main
My star-dust mel-o-dy
The mem-o-ry of loves re-frain.
