Like a rocket through the atmosphere She found her way out of here Leaving all those summer nights behind Under stars so ripe with dreams We didn't dare to dream While gravity was holding us down When I could never let go of the weight of the world She'd say Our hard days and heartaches Would seem so small If we could fly to the moon And see them all like astronauts Like a rocket she burned out too fast Nothing that's too good will last So we've gotta hold what we can And when the sky's too dark to see Those stars and crazy dreams I wish for one of those summer nights When she could always let go of the weight of the world And say Our hard days and heartaches Would seem so small If we could fly to the moon And see them all like astronauts And sometimes Trying gets harder than rocket science But count of three And we'll be free there Out of this world And all our hard days and heartaches Would seem so small If we could fly to the moon And see them all like astronauts Like Astronauts So, Fly Me To The Moon
