COME TAKE A RIDE
(In My Airship)
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.
Chorus
Come take a ride in my air-ship. Come take a trip to the stars.
Come take a ride a-round Ven-us. Come take a trip a-round Mars.
No One to watch while we’re kis-sing. No one to see while we spoon.
Come take a ride in my air-ship and we’ll vi-sit the man in the moon.
One night while out sail-ing a-way from the stars
We passed through the milk-y white way.
Just i-dly sail-ing and watch-ing 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 hon-ey-moon.
We swore to each oth-er we
nev-er would part and we’d teach all our bab-ies this tune

It was funny to see a review that I might have written myself !
I first heard this song when I worked at The Crayols Factory, and we had it playing in one of the exhibits. I added it to the bedtime routine "repetiore" after that, and it soon bacame "most requested"
They are now 14, 12, 11, and 10 --and I just looked up these lyrics because they asked me to sing it again and I had forgotten 2 or 3 of the lines !
I've been singing this song to my kids since they were babies. They are now 5,7 and 12--and it still calms them and comforts them--as it does me. They think this is the love story of their mom and dad--with them mixed in too. And of course, they are right about this magical, whimsical tune.
