Polka Dots and Moonbeams - Lena Horne
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 frightened arms those polka dots and moonbeams
Sparkled round a pug-nosed dream
There were questions in the eyes of other dancers
As we crowded over the floor
There were questions but my heart knew all the answers
And perhaps a few things more
Now in a cottage built of lilac and laughter
I know the meaning of the words 'ever after'
And I'll always see those polka dots and moonbeams
Shall we kiss my pug-nosed dream
