There were questions but my heart knew all the answers
As we floated over the floor
Now in a cottage built of lilacs and laughter
There were questions in the eyes of other dancers
And I'll always see polka dots and moonbeams
And perhaps a few things more
Sparkled on a pug-nosed dream
You would say, “It couldn’t be true”
I felt a bump and heard an, "Oh, beg your pardon"
If you started a moving picture
And I'll always see polka dots and moonbeams
There were questions but my heart knew all the answers
I held my breath and said, "May I have the next one?"
All around a pug-nosed dream
Suddenly I saw polka dots and moonbeams
A country dance was being held in a garden
When I kiss the pug-nosed dream
I know the meaning of the words, ‘Ever after’
In my frightened arms, polka dots and moonbeams
Now in a cottage built of lilacs and laughter
I know the meaning of the words, ‘Ever after’
There were questions in the eyes of other dancers
And perhaps a few things more
The music started and was I the perplexed one
As we floated over the floor
