Polka Dots And Moonbeams Lyrics

The song Polka Dots And Moonbeams is performed by Cassandra Wilson in the album named Blue Skies in the year 1990 .



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

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 that pug-nosed dream
