(Jimmy Van Heusen, Johny Burke)[Recorded May 2, 1961, Los Angeles][instrumental intro-1:43]A country dance was bei ng held in a gardenI felt a bump and heard an 'Oh, beg your pardon'Suddenly I saw polka dots and moonbeamsAll around a pug-n osed dreamThe music started and was I the perplexed oneI held my breath and said 'May I have the next one?'In my frightened arms, polka dots and moonbeamsSparkled on a pug-nosed dreamThere were questions in the eyes of other dancersAs we floated over the floorThere were questions but my heart knew all the answersAnd perhaps a few things moreNow in a cottage built of lilacs and laughterI know the meaning of the words 'Ever after'And I'll always see polka dots and moonbeamsWhen I kiss the p ug-nosed dream
