Lyrics

On the other side of the moon
There’s a land where ev’ry day’s a day in June
Nothing but skies of blue
And very strange but true
The little cares of day
Like toy balloons, all float away
It’s a world for dreamers apart
Known to only the lonely at heart
And if you could learn to care
Take my hand a lead me there
Just a touch and, darling, sooner than soon
We could fly to the other side of the moon

On the other side of the moon
There’s a land where ev’ry day’s a day in June
The breezes sing to you
Dream lovers cling to you
And all the cares of day
Like toy balloons, all float away
It’s a world for dreamers apart
Known to only the lonely at heart
And if you could learn to care
Take my hand a lead me there
Just a touch and, darling, sooner than soon
We could fly to the other side of the moon
Fly with me to the other side of the moon
