Begin the Beguine
Echoes of Tropical Romance: Unveiling the Meaning Behind 'Begin the Beguine'
Lyrics
When they begin the beguine
Commencement of the beguine, triggering memories and emotions.
It brings back the sound of music so tender
Evoking the gentle and melodious tones of music.
It brings back a night of tropical splendor
Recalling a night of tropical beauty and grandeur.
It brings back a memory ever green
Stirring up a timeless and evergreen memory.
I'm with you once more under the stars
Reunited under the stars, enjoying orchestral music by the shore.
And down by the shore an orchestra's playing
An orchestra playing by the shore, creating a romantic atmosphere.
And even the palms seem to be swaying
The surroundings, including palm trees, appear to respond to the music.
When they begin the beguine
The impact and significance when the beguine starts again.
To live it again is past all endeavor
The difficulty of reliving past experiences, except through the music.
Except when that tune clutches my heart
The emotional grip of the tune on the heart.
And there we are, swearing to love forever
A moment of commitment, swearing eternal love.
And promising never, never to part
A promise to never part and sustain everlasting love.
What moments divine, what rapture serene
Describing the divine and serene moments of the past.
Till clouds come along to disperse the joys we had tasted
The interference of troubles and challenges, disrupting past joys.
And now when I hear people curse
Reflecting on missed opportunities that lead to regrets.
The chance that was wasted
Understanding the regret and disappointment of others.
I know but too well what they mean
Personal acknowledgment of the meaning behind wasted chances.
So don't let them begin the beguine
A plea to avoid rekindling memories and emotions associated with the beguine.
Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember
Suggesting that past love should remain dormant like fading embers.
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
Allowing the dead desires to rest, recalling them only as memories.
When they begin the beguine
The emotional impact when the beguine is initiated once again.
Oh yes, let them begin the beguine, make them play
An ironic invitation to start the beguine despite earlier warnings.
Till the stars that were there before return above you
The hope for a return to a romantic, starlit atmosphere.
Till you whisper to me once more, darling, I love you
A longing to hear words of love once again.
And we suddenly know what heaven we're in
Realization of a heavenly moment when the beguine begins.
When they begin the beguine
Reiterating the profound impact of the beguine on emotions.
Oh yes, let them begin the beguine, make them play
A repetition of the ironic invitation, emphasizing the irresistible allure of the beguine.
Till the stars that were there before return above you
The desire for a return to the previous celestial setting.
Till you whisper to me once more, darling, I love you
The yearning to hear declarations of love once more.
And we suddenly know what heaven we're in
Acknowledging the heavenly bliss experienced when the beguine starts.
When they begin the beguine
Reiteration of the transformative power of the beguine.
When they begin the beguine
Final acknowledgment of the profound impact when the beguine begins.
