Fly Me to the Moon Song Lyrics
[Verse 1: Frank Sinatra]
Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
And let me see what spring is like
On a-Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me
[Verse 2: Frank Sinatra]
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing forever more
You are all I long for
All I worship, and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
[Repeat-Verse 2: Frank Sinatra]
Fill my heart with song
Let me sing forever 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
