And now the purple dusk of twilight time Steals across the meadows of my heart High up in the sky the little stars climb Always reminding me that we're apart. You wandered down the lane and far away Leaving me a song that will not die Love is now the stardust of yesterday The music of the years gone by. Sometimes I wonder how I spend The lonely night 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 And now my consolation Is in the stardust of a song. Besides the garden wall When 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 A memory of love's refrain.

about

One of my favorite songs, Stardust is a meandering melody that leads down the garden path of pure poetry to a place where wistful memories dwell, heartfelt yearnings are indulged and meteoric passions shoot across the vistas of the mindscape, leaving behind only the glimmer of stardust and lingering love.

I hope you'll enjoy my free gift to you when you join my mailing list. Go download it now and you can add it to your music collection.
Best, Jeudi

LYRICS
And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart.

High up in the sky, the little stars climb,
Always reminding me that we're apart.

You wander down the lane and far away,
Leaving me a song that will not die.

Love is now, the Stardust of yesterday,
The music of the years, gone by.

1
Sometimes I wonder, why I spend
The lonely night, 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

2
Beside a garden wall,
When stars are bright,
You are in my arms.

A nightingale tells his fairy tale,
Of paradise where roses bloom.

Though I dream in vain,
In my heart, it will remain,
My Stardust melody,
The memory of love's refrain.

about

Jeudi Los Angeles, California

As a performer of vintage music, I like to take people on a joyful time-traveling journey. As you’re listening, I hope you’ll feel like you’ve been transported to the past - - maybe it’s a swank Supper Club in Manhattan, an intimate Parisian Cabaret, an elegant London Ballroom, or to Hollywood’s Golden Age - - or maybe you’ll just drift on the music, back to your own memories. ... more
