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
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
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, please be true
In other words, I love you
I love you

She wants to be filled with song and to sing forever, with her lover as the object of her devotion. The final verse circles back to the first, with the singer pleading for her love to be true and confessing her own feelings: “In other words, I love you.”
