Begin the Beguine (Remastered)

When they begin the beguine
It brings back a sound of music so tender
It brings back a night of tropical splendor
It brings back a memory evergreen

I'm with you once more under the stars
And down by the shore an orchestra's playing
And even the palms seem to be swaying
When they begin to beguine

To live it again is past all endeavour
Except when a tune clutches my heart
And there we are swearing to love forever
And promising never never to part

What moments divine what rapture serene
Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted
And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted
I know but too well what they mean
Ao don't let them begin the beguine

Let the love that was once a fire remain an amber
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
When they begin the beguine

Oh yes let them begin the beguine make them play
Till the stars that were there before return above you
Till you whisper to me once more darling I love you
And we suddenly know what heaven we're in
When they begin the beguine when they begin the beguine
