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'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
Won't you 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
'Cause you are all I long for all I worship and adore
In other words: Please be true!
In other words: I love you!

In other words: Please be true!
In other words: I love you!

Won't you just take me to the moon yeah
