[00:00.00]Begin The Beguine - Ella Fitzgerald
[00:08.32]When they begin the beguine
[00:15.73]It brings back the sound of music so tender
[00:23.65]It brings back a night of tropical splendor
[00:30.41]
[00:31.11]It brings back a memory ever green
[00:38.90]I'm with you once more under the stars
[00:45.33]
[00:46.64]And down by the shore an orchestra's playing
[00:53.17]
[00:54.43]And even the palms seem to be swaying
[01:01.61]
[01:02.63]When they begin the beguine
[01:09.98]To live it again is past all endeavor
[01:17.13]
[01:17.64]Except when that tune clutches my heart
[01:25.19]And there we are swearing to love forever
[01:31.76]And promising never never to part
[01:39.43]
[01:40.47]What moments divine what rapture serene
[01:47.21]
[01:48.12]Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted
[01:54.66]
[01:55.65]And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted
[02:03.32]I know but too well what they mean;
[02:09.54]
[02:10.09]So don't let them begin the beguine
[02:17.11]
[02:17.71]Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember;
[02:24.52]
[02:25.46]Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
[02:32.50]
[02:33.61]When they begin the beguine
[02:40.29]Oh yes let them begin the beguine make them play
[02:47.81]Till the stars that were there before return above you
[02:54.32]
[02:55.21]Till you whisper to me once more
[02:59.06]Darling I love you
[03:01.69]
[03:03.10]And we suddenly know What heaven we're in
[03:11.33]When they begin the beguine
[03:17.71]
[03:18.62]When they begin the beguine
