    Story Behind the Song
    One day my brother up and moved to Grenada. I think he was trying to run from his problems. That inspired this song. I didn't realize at the time how far he was willing to run. A year later he suicided. I wrote November 6th based on that event.

    Lyrics
    Fly me off to Paris in that big jet plane
    Fly me off to Paris and I'll be feeling no pain
    I've got to get away where my troubles can't find me
    So fly me off to somewhere
    And I'll leave it all behind me

    Fly me to Jamaica, where it's sunny all the time
    Where the girls all go naked and I won't be back again
    I've got to get away and leave it all behind
    So fly me off to somewhere
    'Cause I'm really in a bind

    They say you can't run from your troubles
    Well I think they just don't run fast enough
    They say you should'nt hide your feelings
    Well, I think I can't hide mine deep enough
    I've had enough anyway

    Fly me off to NASA I'll join the space program
    Fly me off to NASA 'cause I need some space man
    I've got to get away far far away
    So fly me off to NASA
    and I'll be light-years from today

    Fly me away
    Fly me away
    I'd like to fly away
    Just get me some wings I'll be gone
    Into the blue deep into the clear blue sky
    Just call me Jonathon and I'll be floating on the air
    Yeah, drifting through the clouds, without a single care
    Yes I'll be gone gone gone gone gone gone gone gone...
