Fly Me to the Moon (In Other Words)

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

And so that you'll 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 know 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
