moon
Ventura (Ft. Myk) Lyrics

The song "How High the Moon" originally written by Nancy Hamilton and Morgan Lewis, was performed by many artists including Ella Fitzgerald and Les Paul, who had a huge hit with it in 1951 when it stayed on top of the charts for nine weeks. Ventura (Ft. Myk) performed a modern rendition of this classic jazz standard with piano and saxophone instrumentals. The lyrics are romantic and passionate, expressing the idea that love is like heaven, and even the darkest night would shine if the other loved one is near.

The song begins by acknowledging that somewhere, there is music playing and it's faint, but somewhere there is heaven too, and it's high like the moon. The reference to the moon sets a romantic mood as common romantic clichés often feature the moon. The second verse talks about how love can be near or far, and heaven is where the person we love is. The chorus repeats, emphasizing that even in the darkest of nights, love would make everything shine brighter. However, love seems far away and the singer's heart is still until the other person reciprocates their love.

The repetition of the chorus shows the singer's craving for love and how they cannot fully be alive without being loved back. The metaphor of the moon reminds us that love can be far away but with enough hope and persistence, it might come true. Overall, it's a romantic tune about the power of love, and how it can make everything seem brighter and better.
