When they begin the beguine
It brings back the sound of music so tender
It brings back a night of tropical splendor
It brings back a memory ever green
I'm with you once more under the stars
And down by the shore, an orchestra's playin'
Even the palms seem to be swayin'
When they begin the beguine
To live it again is past all endeavor
Except when the tune clutches my heart
And there we are, swearin' to love forever
And promising never, never to part
What moments divine, what rapture serene
Till clouds come along to disperse the joys we have tasted
And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted
I know but too well what they mean
So don't let them begin the beguine
Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember
Let it sleep like the dead desire, I only remember
When they begin the beguine
When they begin the beguine
When they begin the beguine
