Shall We Visit the Man in the Moon?



The inspiration for the post of these lyrics: Onxy Plutonian's Airship.
I had a very nice time dancing with a few friends and new acquaintances last evening inside this lovely ship.


COME TAKE A RIDE
(In My Airship)
by Ren Shields

I love a sailor, a sailor loves me. He comes every night to my home
He’s not a sailor who sails on the sea over the wild briny foam
For he owns an airship that sails upon high.
He’s just like a bird on the wing.
And every evening when shadows draw nigh,
he will come to my window and sing:

Come take a ride in my airship. Come take a trip to the stars.
Come take a ride around Venus. Come take a trip around Mars.
No One to watch while we’re kissing. No one to see while we spoon.
Come take a ride in my airship and we’ll visit the man in the moon.

One night while out sailing away from the stars
We passed through the milk-y white way.
Just idly sailing and watching the stars
he asked me if I’d name the day.
Right near the dip-per I gave him my heart.
The sun shines on our honey-moon.
We swore to each other we
never would part and we’d teach all our babies this tune:

Come take a ride in my airship. Come take a trip to the stars.
Come take a ride around Venus. Come take a trip around Mars.
No One to watch while we’re kissing. No one to see while we spoon.
Come take a ride in my airship and we’ll visit the man in the moon.



Dancing to DJ Lucien B's great mix.


Kind of makes you wonder what's happening just out of frame, doesn't it?
