這首歌基本上只是一首由Tommy Dorsey領導的大樂團所演奏而走紅的流行曲,當時在樂團中擔任主唱歌者的是年僅24歲的Frank Sinatra。這首是略帶著微笑似戀情般的情歌,一首很純潔,又帶著一絲絲浪漫的情曲。基本架構是一首很甜美的Swing搖擺樂風曲子。
| Polka Dots And Moonbeams |
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
