Paul Desmond - Polka Dots and Moonbeams - Alternate Take Lyrics

Lyrics Polka Dots and Moonbeams - Alternate Take - Paul Desmond



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, 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 the pug-nosed dream



Writer(s): Jimmy Van Heusen, Johnny Burke
