Karaoke Track: Begin The Beguine by Cole Porter (Pocket Songs) - Karaoke Nerds

(M)
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 evergreen

(F)
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

(M)
To live it again

Is past all endeavor

(F)
Except, when that tune

Clutches my heart

(Both)
And there we are,

Swearing to love

Forever

(F)
And promising never

(WI)
Never to part

(M)
What moments divine,

What rapture serene

(F)
Till clouds came along

To disperse the joys

We had tasted

(M)
And now, when

I hear people

Curse the chance
That was wasted

I know but too well
What they mean

(F)
So, don't let them

Begin the Beguine

(M)
Let the love

That was once a fire

Remain an ember

(F)
Let it sleep

Like the dead desire

I only remember

(Both)
When they begin

The Beguine

(M)
Oh, yes,

Let them begin

The Beguine,
Make them play

Till the stars that
Were there before

Return above you

(F)
Till you whisper

To me once more

Darling, I love you

(M)
And we suddenly know

(F)
What heaven we're in

(M)
When they begin

The Beguine

(Both)
When they begin

The Beguine
