Begin the beguine


Só nós dois juntos no mesmo abraço
E a lua em pedaços
Baila no ar
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
I'm with you once more under the stars
And down by the shore an orchestra's 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 don't let them begin the beguine
Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember
Let is 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 we're in
When they begin the beguine
When they begin the beguine

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics BEGIN THE BEGUINE of GAL COSTA is also present in the album Plural (1990)
