Stardust Memories: Echoes of Love Lost
Lyrics
And now the purple dusk of twilight time
The time of evening when the sky turns purple.
Steals across the meadows of my heart
Emotional impact or feeling that spreads through the speaker's innermost feelings.
High up in the sky the little stars climb
The stars moving higher in the sky.
Always reminding me that we're apart
Constantly reminding the speaker of the physical separation.
You wander down the lane and far away
You, the subject of the speaker's thoughts, walk away into the distance.
Leaving me a song that will not die
You leave behind a song that holds strong sentimental value.
Love is now the stardust of yesterday
Love is now a nostalgic memory.
The music of the years gone by.
The music represents past experiences and emotions.
Sometimes I wonder, how I spend
Reflecting on how the speaker spends their nights in solitude.
The lonely nights
The speaker questions the emotional toll of spending nights alone.
Dreaming of a song
Daydreaming or reminiscing about a particular song.
The melody
The tune that lingers in the speaker's thoughts.
Haunts my reverie
The melody persistently occupies the speaker's thoughts.
And I am once again with you
A return to a past moment shared with the subject of the song.
When our love was new
Recalling the initial phase of love when it was fresh and new.
And each kiss an inspiration
Each kiss during that time was a source of inspiration.
But that was long ago
Emphasizing the time elapsed since those initial romantic moments.
And now my consolation is in the stardust of a song
Now finding solace in the memories carried by a song (stardust).
Besides the garden wall, when stars are bright
A setting for a romantic encounter.
You are in my arms
The subject is held close in an embrace.
The nightingale
A bird symbolizing the magical nature of the moment.
Tells his fairytale
The bird tells a beautiful story or sings a beautiful song.
Of paradise, where roses grew
A reference to a paradise-like place where roses grew, symbolizing a perfect, romantic setting.
Though I dream in vain
Despite dreaming, the desired outcome doesn't materialize.
In my heart it will remain
Even though the dream doesn’t come true, the memory stays in the heart.
My stardust melody
The song holds the essence of love’s memory.
The memory of love's refrain.
The recollection of the refrain of love’s melody.
