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, those polka dots and moonbeams Sparkled round a pug-nosed dream There were questions in the eyes of other dancers As we crowded 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 lilac and laughter I know the meaning of the words "ever after" And I'll always see those polka dots and moonbeams When I kiss my pug-nosed dream There were questions in the eyes of other dancers As we crowded over the floor.
