|
|
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
|
