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,
Baby, kiss me.
Fill my heart with song,
and let me sing forevermore.
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
and let me sing forevermore
you are all I long for
all I worship and adore.
In other words,
please be true.
In other words,
in other words,
In other words,
I love you.
The song "Fly Me to the Moon" is a classic love song that was popularized by the great Frank Sinatra. The song is a statement of desire and love for someone, and the lyrics express the longing for the person to take the singer to faraway places and be with them. The first few lines of the song talk about taking flights to the moon and playing among the stars, which is clearly an unrealistic idea, but it's a way of expressing one's feelings for someone in hyperbole.
The next few lines of the song express the desire to see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars, which is yet another hyperbole for the love that is so strong that it can take you to the far corners of the universe. The chorus repeats a plea for the loved one to hold the singer's hand, and then the line "baby, kiss me" is a clear and direct expression of love.
The next verse repeats the same themes, as the singer asks for their heart to be filled with song and to be able to sing forevermore while worshipping and adoring the loved one. The chorus repeats the plea for the loved one to be true and a direct expression of love. The use of the phrase "in other words" before the plea reinforces the importance of the request and the sincerity of the feelings behind it.
