Listen to poem:

Shoot the Moon

Lyrics poem
Story first I set this to music on a site, typed lyrics in picked style , drums   violin sax and other settings. This amazing female voice sung it  blew my mind. I love saxophone and a bit was it solo. It 2am I pressed something and lost it. I could cried. It shot of around cyber space ha ha. Will do it all again. This is my lyrics.


Come fly with me above the stars
Soar on eagles wings by far
Ride a galaxy or two
Shooting stars will follow you
Higher ~ swifter up we go

Feel the fancy of the flight
Clouds are fluffy like cotton wool
Smooth and comfy of we go
Zooming round and round
Expressive joy, happiness abounds

Shoot the moon, my turtle dove
Just continue, feel the love
We never want the ride to stop
On the unicorns back we hop
Jump the rainbows all around

Oh wow!! Just listened to the song... absolutely gorgeous!! Totally blown away~~~ love the way she also sang who the lyrics were by and a lovely repeat of the middle stanza.

You never know, if creating something for Disney is something you'd like to try you could find out how to contact them, maybe send a sample or two of your work and it could be that they'll get back in touch. :-D
