Take me where the drums where they wake me
Take me where they begin the beguine

**

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 the memory of green

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

To live it again
is past all endeavor
except when the tune
clutches my heart
and here we are swearing to love forever
and promising never, never to part

What moments of life?
and what rapture serene?
Till clouds came along
and dispersed the joys we had tasted
and now when I hear people curse the chance that we've wasted
I know but too well what they mean

Oh yes make them begin the beguine
make them play
till the sparks that were once a fire
remain an ember
Let it sleep like the desire I always remember
when we suddenly know what heaven we're in

Oh yes make them begin the beguine
make them play
til the stars that were there before
return above you
till you tell me
once more my darling I love you
and we suddenly know what heaven we're in (oh)
when they begin the beguine (ah, ah, ah)

and we suddenly know what heaven we're in
when they begin the beguine
