polka dots and moonbeams
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 the pug-nosed dream
