Polka Dots and Moonbeams

Lyrics：Johnny Burke Music：Jimmy Van Heusen Arranger：Sy Oliver

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 breathe, 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 floated 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 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
