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 mu - sic started, and was I the perplexed one I held my breath, and said "May I have the next one" In my frighttened arms polka dots and moonbeams Sparkled on a pug-nosed dream Bridge 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 my pug nosed dream
