Polka Dots And Moonbeams

A Friend of Yours: 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
