Begin the Beguine
Eternal Love in Tropical Nights: Begin the Beguine
Lyrics
When they begin the beguine
Initiation of the beguine, triggering nostalgic memories
It brings back the sound of music so tender
Evoking tender musical memories
It brings back a night of tropical splendor
Recollection of a night filled with tropical beauty
It brings back a memory ever green
Rekindling a vivid and everlasting memory
I'm with you once more under the stars
Reunion under the stars
And down by the shore an orchestra's playing
Orchestra playing by the shore intensifying the experience
And even the palms seem to be swaying
Sensation of even the palms swaying in rhythm
When they begin the beguine
The magic of the beguine unfolding
To live it again is past all endeavor
Reviving the past, a challenging but worthwhile pursuit
Except when that tune clutches my heart
The emotional impact of the tune on the heart
And there we are, swearing to love forever
Pledging love forever while in the embrace of the music
And promising never, never to part
Commitment to never part, a solemn promise
What moments divine, what rapture serene
Describing moments of divine and serene joy
Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted
Interruption by life's challenges and disappointments
And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted
Regret over missed opportunities and wasted chances
I know but too well what they mean
Understanding the regret expressed by others
So don't let them begin the beguine
Caution against restarting the beguine
Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember
Suggesting to let past love remain a fading ember
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
Advising to let the dormant desire rest in memory
When they begin the beguine
Reiterating the impact of starting the beguine
Oh yes, let them begin the beguine, please make them play
Expressing a desire for the beguine to begin again
Till the stars that were there before return above you
Longing for the return of past happiness
Till you whisper to me once more, "Darling, I love you"
Awaiting the reaffirmation of love with a whispered declaration
Then we suddenly know what heaven we're in
Realization of being in a heavenly moment
When they begin the, begin the, begin the beguine
Emphasizing the impact and significance of the beguine
When they begin the, begin the, begin the beguine
Repetition for emphasis on the profound effect of the beguine
When they begin the beguine
Final acknowledgment of the transformative power of the beguine
