Begin The Beguine - Artie Shaw

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 it 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 Quiero sentir las cosas de siempre Quiero saber si tú aún me quieres Quiero volver a empezar When they begin the beguine Quiero saber que fue de tu vida Quiero saber si todo se olvida Para volver a empezar Yo que siempre jugué con tu amor hasta el final Y seguro yo estaba que tú aún me querías Hoy al ver que ya todo acabó que no daría Para volver a empezar Día a día te hacías querer un poco más Quién me iba a decir que una vez te perdería Y hoy al verme tan solo sin ti que no daría Para volver a empezar When they begin the beguine Quiero sentir las cosas de siempre Quiero saber si tú aún me quieres Para volver a empezar Yo que siempre jugué con tu amor hasta el final Y seguro yo estaba que tú aún me querías Hoy al ver que ya todo acabó que no daría Para volver a empezar Día a día te hacías querer un poco más Quién me iba a decir que una vez te perdería Y hoy al verme tan solo sin ti que no daría Para volver a empezar Yo que siempre jugué con tu amor hasta el final Y seguro yo estaba que tú aún me querías Hoy al ver que ya todo acabó que no daría Para volver a empezar
