Suddenly I saw polka dots and moonbeams

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

When I kiss the pug-nosed dream
