A country dance was being held in a garden I felt a bump and heard an Oh, beg you 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 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 made 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 When I kiss my pug-nosed dream When I kiss my pug-nosed dream
