Cole Porter Miscellaneous Begin The Beguine Begin the Beguine Cole Porter - Artie Shaw had a fantastic "swing" hit with it in 1938 (Instrumental). - Originally in Porter's stage show JUBILEE, and later in "Broadway Melody of 1940". 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. Im with you once more under the stars, And down by the shore an orchestras playing And even the palms seem to be swaying When they begin the beguine. To live it again is past all endeavor, Except when that 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; So dont 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. 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 were in, When they begin the beguine From: harthaus@athenet.net |
