Fly Me to the Moon Lyrics

[Verse]
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
Two, three

[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 worship, all I long for and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
In othеr words, please be truе
In other words, I love you
Oh, yes

What did Alex Villoria say about "Fly Me to the Moon"?

Genius Answer

This song is just an absolute classic. Many people only know of Sinatra’s rendition, or think that he wrote and sang it. However, this standard was around long before he sang it! The verse is often overlooked in modern renditions, as well as the song usually being interpreted in an upbeat, swing fashion. With my take, I wanted to capture the utter feeling of romance and intimacy that I feel that the lyrics and melody exuberate.
