Fly Me to the Moon
Jackson Leon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On a-Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me

Fill my heart with song
And 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



Fill my heart with song
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, in other words
I love ... you
