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. 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.
