Nat “King” Cole
Fly Me to the Moon (In Other Words)
[Verse]
Oh, it's often used 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 this song
To be sure that you know what I'm saying
I'll translate as I go along
[Chorus]
Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and 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 and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing forevermore
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
