My days have grown so lonely
For I have lost the one and only
My pride has been humbled
For I am hers body and soul
I was a mere sensation
My house of cards had no foundation
Although it has tumbled
I still am hers body and soul
What lies before me?
A future that's stormy
A winter that's grey and cold
Unless there's magic
The end will be tragic
An echo, a tale that's been told so often
My life revolves about her
What earthly good am I without her?
My castle has crumbled
I am hers body and soul
Sometimes I wonder why
I spend the lonely, 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 sings his fairy tale
A paradise where roses grew
Though I dream in vain
In my heart you will remain
My stardust melody
A memory of love's refrain
Although I dream in vain
In my heart you will remain
My stardust melody
A memory of love's refrain
