In Other Words

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.

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.

You are all I 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.
