Begin the Beguine
Rekindling Romance: Exploring the Mesmerizing Tale Behind 'Begin the Beguine'
Lyrics
When they begin the beguine
Starting the beguine evokes memories.
It brings back the sound of music so tender,
Reviving the gentle music's nostalgic echoes.
It brings back a night of tropical splendor,
Recalling a night of tropical grandeur.
It brings back a memory ever green.
Stirring up an evergreen memory.
I'm with you once more under the stars,
Reuniting under starry skies.
And down by the shore an orchestra's playing
An orchestra plays by the shore.
And even the palms seem to be swaying
Even the palms seem to dance.
When they begin the beguine.
The beguine's magic unfolds.
To live it again is past all endeavor,
Reliving the past is challenging.
Except when that tune clutches my heart,
The tune grips the heart.
And there we are, swearing to love forever,
Pledging eternal love.
And promising never, never to part.
Committing to never part.
What moments divine, what rapture serene,
Experiencing divine moments and serene bliss.
Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted,
Clouds spoil the joy, dispersing what was tasted.
And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted,
Hearing regrets for wasted chances.
I know but too well what they mean;
Understanding the meaning of regret.
So don't let them begin the beguine
Advising against restarting the beguine.
Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember;
Suggesting to keep past love as a flickering ember.
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
Allowing the dormant desire to rest in memory.
When they begin the beguine.
Cautioning against reigniting the beguine.
Oh yes, let them begin the beguine, make them play
Contradictory: Encouraging to start the beguine again.
Till the stars that were there before return above you,
Play until the stars return, symbolizing renewal.
Till you whisper to me once more,
Whispering love once more.
"Darling, I love you!"
Expressing love with a declaration.
And we suddenly know, what heaven we're in,
Realizing the heavenly bliss in the moment.
When they begin the beguine
Experiencing ecstasy when the beguine begins.
