Frank Sinatra - Polkadots and Moonbeams (Legendary Sides)

Writer(s): Burke/Van Heusen


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 breathe, 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 my pug-nosed dream

The Sinatra & Jobim (1967) piece on youtube shows how emotionally expressive Frank's voice was without the big band backing he usually had!

Amazing. Talk about an opening arrangement that exposes his voice to such close examination, it drags you into the meaning of the words with faultless phrasing. Then that ending, words fail me, sometimes I feel as I get older that I have become immune to some sentiments, but the hairs stood up on the back of my neck and a shiver went down my spine. Absolutely, mind blowing, the essence of how one human being through sound alone can stir emotion in another human being.
