poets often use many words
to say a simple thing
it takes thought and time and rhyme
to make a poem sing
with music and words i've been playing
for you i have written a song
to be sure that you'll know what i'm saying
i'll translate as i go along
fly me to the moon
and let me play among the stars
won't you let me see what spring is like on jupiter and mars
in other words: hold my hand!
in other words: darling kiss me!
fill my heart with song,
and let me sing forever more
cause you are all long for all i worship and adore
in other words: please be true!
in other words: i love you!
in other words: please be true!
in other words: i love you!
