Fly Me To The Moon (In Other Words)

Bart Howard (música e letra)
Fly Me To The Moon (In Other Words) (1954)

"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 know
What I'm saying
I'll translate as I'll go along

Fly me to the moon
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
Darling 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
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"

Oh! You Crazy Moon

Jimmy Van Heusen (música) e Johnny Burke (letra)
Oh! You Crazy Moon (1939)

"When they met, the way they smiled, I saw that I was through
Oh, you crazy moon, what did you do?
And when they kissed, they tried to say that it was just in fun
Oh, you crazy moon, look what you've done

Once you promised me, you know that it would never end
You should be ashamed to show your funny face, my friend

There they are, they fell in love, I guess you think that you're smart
Oh, you crazy moon, you broke my heart

Once you promised me, you know, that it would never end
You should be ashamed to show your funny face, my friend"
