500 Miles High
Return to Forever, 1973
Some day you’ll look in to her eyes
Then there’ll be no goodbyes
And yesterday will have gone
You’ll find yourself in another space
500 miles high
You’ll see just one look and you’ll
know
She’s so tender and warm
You’ll recognize this is love
You’ll find yourself on another plane
500 miles high
Be sure that you love stays so free
Then it never can die
Just realize this is truth
And above the skies you will always
stay
500 miles high
500 miles high
500 miles high
Floating
Moody Blues, 1969
Floating free as a bird
Sixty foot leaps it’s so absurd
From up here you should see the view
Such a lot of space for me and you
CHORUS:
Oh you’d like it
Gliding around get your feet off the
ground
Oh you’d like it
Do as you please with so much ease
Now I know how it feels
To have wings on my heels
To take a stroll among the stars
Get a close look at planet Mars
CHORUS
Bouncing about on the Moon
Guess you’ll all be up here soon
The candy stores they’ll be brand new
And you’ll buy a rock with the Moon
right through
Oh you’d like it
Gliding around get your feet off the
ground
Oh you’d like it
Do as you please with so much ease
Come fly...
Come fly...
Come fly...
Fly Me to the Moon
(In Other Words)
Kaye Ballard, 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'll know what I'm
saying,
I'll translate as I go along...

Fly me to the Moon
Let me sing among those stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby kiss me
Fill my heart with song
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
Fly Up to the Moon
Black, 1991
Gonna fly up to the Moon,
Raising all of my money.
Can’t make it too soon,
I am sick of it down here.
Gonna rise up to the Moon.
So this is how the world endsNot with a bang but with a wimpy.
Don’t laugh too soonI am sick of it down here.
Gonna rise up to the Moon.
Who needs all the troubles of today?
What’s the difference anyway?
I feel out of focus, what can I do?
There’s only you.
Gonna fly up to the Moon,
Raising all of my money.
Can’t make it too soon,
I am sick of it down here.
Gonna rise up to the Moon.
1
When they open the borders
Where will you be?
I’ll climb the highest tree
To avoid the stampedeAnd if I should fly
Only you, you,
There’s only you,
That would say goodbye.
Flying for Me
John Denver, 1986
Well I guess that you probably know by
now
I was one who wanted to fly
I wanted to ride on that arrow of fire
right up into heaven
And I wanted to go for every man
Every child, every mother of children
I wanted to carry the dreams of all
people right up to the stars
And I prayed that I’d find an answer
there
Or maybe I would find a song
Giving a voice to all of the hearts that
cannot be heard
And for all of the ones who live in fear
And all of those who stand apart
My being there would bring us a little
step closer together
They were flying for me
They were flying for everyone
They were trying to see a brighter day
for each and everyone
They gave us their light
They gave us their spirit and all they
could be
They were flying for me
They were flying for me

And I wanted to wish upon the Milky
Way
And dance upon a falling star
I wanted to give myself and free myself,
and join myself with it all
Given the chance to dream, it can be
done
The promise of tomorrow is real
Children of spaceship Earth
The future belongs to us all
She was flying for me
She was flying for everyone
She was trying to see a brighter day for
each and everyone
She gave us her light
She gave us her spirit and all she can be
She was flying for me
They were flying for me
They were flying for everyone
They were trying to see a brighter day
for each and everyone
They gave us their light
They gave us their spirit and all they
can be
They were flying for me
They were flying for me
They were flying for me
They were flying for me
Flying Saucer
Astronaut Wife, 2002
Hello my friends in the sky
Where did you go?
I miss you. Do you miss me?
Nobody here believes a word I say
When will you come back
And take me away?
Flying saucer in the sky
Where will you take me tonight?
Flying saucer in the sky
Where will you take me tonight?
On the planet you live
Are you ever alone? Is anyone?
Is there any such thing as loneliness?
Is anyone's life so meaningless?
The closest thing to a friend that I ever
had
I wish you could understand
Flying saucer in the sky
Where will you take me tonight?
Flying saucer in the sky
Where will you take me tonight?
I feel like a stranger
I feel alone
I feel invisible
Not in a good way
But in a bad way
I feel like a misfit
Like I'm living another life
When you come back next time
Don't leave me behind
Flying saucer in the sky
Where will you take me tonight?
Flying saucer in the sky
Where will you take me tonight?
Where will you take me tonight?
Where will you take me tonight?
Where will you take me tonight?

Flying Saucer Rock N Roll
Billy Lee Riley, 1957
Well, the news of the saucer been aflyin' around
I'm the only one that seen it on the
ground
First thing I seen when I saw it land
Cats jumped out and they formed a
band
[CHORUS]
Flyin' saucer rock and roll, flyin' saucer
rock and roll
I couldn't understand the things they
said
But that crazy beat just a stopped me
dead
Well the little green men, they were real
hep-cats
Rockin' and a-rollin' to the crazy flats
They brought out a sax and they started
to blow
They brought out the drums and they
started to roll
[CHORUS]
Well, I come out a-hidin' and I started
to rock
Little green men tought me how to do
the bop
They were three foot high, hit a few
bars
Started rock and roll al the way from
mars
[CHORUS]
A Fun Bunch of Guys From Outer
Space
Sparks, 1983
We're a fun bunch of guys
And we come from outer space
On the planet where we're from
War is even fun
We're a fun bunch of guys
We're a fun bunch of guys
Here to infiltrate and get a tan
We arrived here from the sky
On that cream pie parked outside
We're a fun bunch of guys
We're a fun bunch of guys
We speak English real good
On our T.V.'s in the sky
Your reruns come in fine
We're a fun bunch of guys
Fun in Space
Roger Taylor, 1981
Strangers in a strange land
In an alien heat
Journeys made by no man
In event of defeat
This ship sings to the skies
This ship sings to the skies
For all you, Gals and guys
Stranger than fiction
The smile on your face
Boy when we get there
We'll have fun in space
Our structure is battered
But the corridors ring
With little green stories
Of this and these things
