Polka Dots And Moonbeams |
A country dance was being held in a garden |
I felt a bump and heard an «Oh, beg your pardon» |
Suddenly I saw polka dots and moonbeams |
All around a pug-nosed dream |
The music started and was I the perplexed one |
I held my breath and said «May I have the next one» |
In my frightrnrd arms, polka dots and moonbeams |
Sparkled on a pug-nosed dream |
There were questions in the eyes of other dancers |
As we floated over the floor |
There were questions but my heart knew all the answers |
And perhaps a few things more |
Now in a cottage made of lilacs and laughter |
I know the meaning of the words «ever after» |
And I ll always see polka dots and moonbeams |
When I kiss my pug-nosed dream |
Words by Johnny Burke, Music by Jimmy van Heusen |
