          Frank Sinatra – Fly Me To The Moon Lyrics

          Fly me to the moon and
          Let me play among those stars
          Let me see what spring is like on
          Jupiter and Mars
          In other words,
          Hold my handin other words,
          Darlin kiss me
          Fill my heart with song and
          Dlet 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

              “Always on My Mind” is a ballad written by Wayne Carson, Johnny Christopher, and Mark James, first recorded by Brenda Lee, and first released by Gwen McCrae (as “You Were Always on My Mind”) in March 1972. Lee’s version was released three months later in June 1972.

              Maybe I didn’t treat you
              Quite as good as I should have
              Maybe I didn’t love you
              Quite as often as I could have

              Little things I should have said and done
              I just never took the time
              You were always on my mind
              You were always on my mind

              Maybe I didn’t hold you
              All those lonely, lonely times
              And I guess I never told you
              I’m so happy that you’re mine

              If I make you feel second best
              Girl, I’m so sorry I was blind
              You were always on my mind
              You were always on my mind

              Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn’t died
              Give me, give me one more chance
              To keep you satisfied, satisfied
              Little things I should have said and done
              I just never took the time

              You were always on my mind
              You were always on my mind
              You were always on my mind

              Maybe I didn’t treat you
              Quite as good as I should have
              Maybe I didn’t love you
              Quite as often as I could have

              Maybe I didn’t hold you
              All those lonely, lonely times
              And I guess I never told you
              I’m so happy that you’re mine

                  Thanks my friends for viewing and review. I tried so hard as I was working this tune to use the octave option at the last section so I could play the high F#. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to repeatedly hit that high F# in altissimo. I know it is me and not the sax. Even though my sax is a Selmer Bundy II which is a student model it plays really well. After I re-regulated it recently I can hit on demand the low C# C B and Bflat. The aggravating thing is the only low note that is still constantly not reliable at any time is the low D. Can’t figure unless it is my ombrochure or may be a leaking pad. Everything else after I adjusted the regulation and octave key and had the pad replaced on the octave key and new cork put on the neck at our local shop,,plays really well.
                  So as it goes,,,for my age (76) and my original sax a new Selmer Super Action 80 purchased in the 70’s that I stupidly sold many years ago when I thought I was finished then had to find a local bargain that I could afford being retired with fixed income,,,,I am happy being back in the mix playing the sax. If I win a small lottery …lol…I will purchase a new sax. Must say,,,I am jealous of you guys with the Mark VI’s and the Yamaha horns. They sound so good.
                  Anyway thanks again for your support! Thank you Johnny for your professional site and backing tracks!!

                    Lyrics
                    Crazy, I’m crazy for feeling so lonely
                    I’m crazy, crazy for feeling so blue
                    I knew you’d love me as long as you wanted
                    And then someday you’d leave me for somebody new
                    Worry, why do I let myself worry?
                    Wondering what in the world did I do?
                    Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
                    I’m crazy for trying and crazy for crying
                    And I’m crazy for loving you
                    Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
                    I’m crazy for trying and crazy for crying
                    And I’m crazy for loving you
