Being the Beguine |
When they begin the beguine |
It brings back the sound of music so tender |
It brings back a night of tropical splendor |
It brings back a memory ever green |
I’m with you once more under the stars |
And down by the shore an orchestra’s playing |
And even the palms seem to be swaying |
When they begin the beguine |
To live it again is past all endeavor |
Except when that tune clutches my heart |
And there we are, swearing to love forever |
And promising never, never to part |
What moments divine, what rapture serene |
The clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted |
And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted |
I know but too well what they mean |
So don’t let them begin the beguine |
Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember |
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember |
When they begin the beguine |
O yes, let them begin the beguine, make them play |
Till the stars that were there before return above you |
Till you whisper to me once more: «Darling, I love you!» |
And we suddenly know what heaven we’re in When they begin the beguine |
