Polka Dots and Moonbeams

There were questions but my heart knew all the answers

All around a pug-nosed dream

In my frightened arms, polka dots and moonbeams
There were questions but my heart knew all the answers
As we floated over the floor
There were questions in the eyes of other dancers
Suddenly I saw polka dots and moonbeams
You would say, “It couldn’t be true”

I know the meaning of the words, ‘Ever after’
Sparkled on a pug-nosed dream
There were questions in the eyes of other dancers
And perhaps a few things more
And perhaps a few things more

As we floated over the floor
Now in a cottage built of lilacs and laughter
Now in a cottage built of lilacs and laughter
The music started and was I the perplexed one
If you started a moving picture
And I'll always see polka dots and moonbeams
I know the meaning of the words, ‘Ever after’
A country dance was being held in a garden

And I'll always see polka dots and moonbeams
I felt a bump and heard an, "Oh, beg your pardon"
I held my breath and said, "May I have the next one?"
When I kiss the pug-nosed dream
