Fly Me To The Moon by Ed Ames Lyrics
Poets often use many words to say a simple thing
It takes thought and time and rhyme to make a poem sing
With music and words I've been playing
For you I have written a song
To be sure that you know what I'm saying
I'll translate as I go along
Fly me to the moon and let me play among the stars
Let me see what Spring is like on Jupiter or Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, darling kiss me
Fill my heart with song and let me sing forevermore
You are all I long for, all I worship for and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
It takes thought and time and rhyme to make a poem sing
With music and words I've been playing
For you I have written a song
To be sure that you know what I'm saying
I'll translate as I go along
Fly me to the moon and let me play among the stars
Let me see what Spring is like on Jupiter or Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, darling kiss me
Fill my heart with song and let me sing forevermore
You are all I long for, all I worship for and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
