Polka Dots and Moonbeams

42nd Street - Mel Tormé

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 the 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

Polka dots and moonbeams

Sparkled on a pug nosed dream

There were questions

In the eyes of other dancers

As we dropped over the floor

There were questions

But my heart knew all the answers

And perhaps a few things more

Now in a cottage feel with lilacs and laughter

I know the meaning of the words ever after

And I'll always see polka dots and moonbeams

When I kiss that pug nosed dream

There were questions

In the eyes of other dancers

As we dropped over the floor

Now in a cottage feel with lilacs and laughter

I know the meaning of the words ever after

And I'll always see polka dots and moonbeams

When I kiss that pug nosed

How I love that pug nosed

When I kiss that pug nosed dream
