STARDUST ON AUTUMN LEAVES
STARDUST ON AUTUMN LEAVES
I kind of know the meaning of that song
That everyone by now has surely heard
But I’d say, for those who missed it all
The tune and lyric resonate so well
But wait, there’s something that I know that must be shared
The secret of that song
A meaning there, welcomed in your heart
And a message that one feels is really true
With a sideways glance
There’s a way to see for real
Another place to find
That fantasy will never cease to be
A second song, will always haunt me
And ever stay, in four four time
But French gives way, to Johnny Mercer
Reluctantly, the ghost remains
But one last hope will see, romance that lingers
As one is ever lost, in love
But there’s never cause to doubt me darling
When the only thing I know, is you’re mine
