Polka Dots And Moonbeams

Mel Torme · Other Songs - Mel Torme

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

When I kiss my 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

When I kiss my pug-nosed dream



When I kiss my pug-nosed dream
