Lyrics:

By Hoagy Carmichael and Mitchell Parish SOMETIMES I WONDER WHY I SPEND THE 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. BUT THAT WAS LONG AGO, NOW MY CONSOLATION IS IN THE STARDUST OF A SONG. BESIDE A GARDEN WALL WHERE 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 LOVES REFRAIN. AAAHHH, HIT ME! 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 LOVES REFRAIN.
