Fly Me To The Moon
Anna Ternheim Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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, darlin' 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
yeah, fly me to the moon
only shatter for the galaxy
thousand planet stars
if ill it selavie
or where we learn it
on the moon
we are ready to chill
do some backflips on the gravity
we don't need skills
and we jump appine
oh let me fly by
just the view of the eye
of the moon in the sky
and we to speed of life
and all we goes in the eye
we are free to fly arround
and say goodbye
goodbye, goodbye (say goodbye)
Fly me to the moon
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, darlin' kiss me
(writing by josie Matuszak)
The song "Fly Me To The Moon" by Anna Ternheim is a romantic ballad that expresses a desire to leave the earthly problems behind and explore the beauty of the universe. The first verse talks about wanting to escape Earth and play among the stars, hoping to see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars. The use of the phrase "fly me to the moon" represents an aspiration to reach for the impossible and explore new frontiers.
The second verse talks about the desire for love and companionship, expressed through action rather than words. The singer wants the person they are addressing to hold their hand and kiss them, filling their heart with song. The use of the phrase "please be true" represents a plea for honesty and trust in the relationship.
The chorus of the song repeats the desire to explore the universe and be with the person they love. There is a yearning to leave behind the problems of the world and fly among the stars. The lyrics convey a sense of liberation and freedom that can only be found in the vastness of space.
