Fly Me To The Moon
Doris Day · Pillow Talk: 25 Greatest Hits [2008]
And let me play among the stars
Let me know 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
You are all I worship
All I long for and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
Fill my heart with joy
And let me sing forever more
You are all I worship
All I long for and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
