COME TAKE A TRIP (In My Airship)
|
|
I once loved a sailor, once a sailor loved me,
|
But he was not a sailor, who sailed on the wide blue sea
|
He sailed in an airship, sailed like a bird on the wind
|
And every evening at midnight, he would come to my window and sing:
|
|
Come take a trip in my airship, come sail away to the stars.
|
We'll travel to Venus, we'll sail away to Mars.
|
Noone will see while we’re kissing, noone will know as we swoon.
|
So come take a trip in my airship, and we’ll visit the man in the moon.
|
|
One night sailing a-way from the clouds
|
We passed through the milky white way.
|
While idly drifting and watching the crowds
|
he asked if I’d name the day.
|
Just by the dipper I gave him my heart.
|
The sun shone on our honeymoon.
|
We swore to each other we never would part
|
And we’d teach all the babies this tune:
|
|
Come take a trip in my airship, come sail away to the stars.
|
We'll travel to Venus, we'll sail away to Mars.
|
Noone will see while we’re kissing, noone will know as we swoon.
|
So come take a trip in my airship, and we’ll visit the man in the moon.
|
