How High The Moon (Part 1) Lyrics By Ella Fitzgerald

    somewhere there’s music
    how faint the tune
    somewhere there’s heaven
    how high the moon
    there is no moon above
    when love is far away too
    till it comes true
    that you love me as i love you

    somewhere there’s music
    it’s where you are
    somewhere there’s heaven
    how near how far
    the darkest night would shine
    if you would come to me soon
    until you will how still my heart
    how high the moon

    how high the moon
    is the name of this song
    how high the moon
    though the words may be wrong
    we’re singing it
    because you ask for it
    so we’re swinging it just for you

    how high the moon
    does it touch the stars
    how high the moon
    does it reach up to mars
    though the words may be wrong
    to this song
    we’re asking how high high high
    high high is the moon
