Fly Me to the Moon

Fly Me to the Moon - Nat King Cole/George Shearing Quintet

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 this song

To be sure that you known 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 and mars'

In other words' hold my hand'

In other words' darling kiss me'

Fill my heart with song'

And let me sing forever more'

You are all I long for'

All I worship and adore'

In other words' please be true'

In other words' I love you'

Fill my heart with song'

And let me sing forever more'

You are all I long for'

All I worship and adore'

In other words' please be true'

In other words' I love you'
