Drops of Jupiter<\/span><\/strong> (by Train)<\/span><\/p>\n

Now that she’s back in the atmosphere
\nWith drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey
\nShe acts like summer and walks like rain
\nReminds me that there’s time to change, hey, hey
\nSince the return from her stay on the moon
\nShe listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey<\/p>\n

Tell me did you sail across the sun
\nDid you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
\nAnd that heaven is overrated<\/p>\n

Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
\nOne without a permanent scar
\nAnd did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there<\/p>\n

Now that she’s back from that soul vacation
\nTracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
\nShe checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
\nReminds me that there’s room to grow, hey, hey<\/p>\n

Now that she’s back in the atmosphere
\nI’m afraid that she might think of me as plain ol’ Jane
\nTold a story about a man who was too afraid to fly so he never did land<\/p>\n

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
\nDid you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
\nAnd head back to the Milky Way
\nAnd tell me, did Venus blow your mind
\nWas it everything you wanted to find
\nAnd did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there<\/p>\n

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
\nYour best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you’re wrong
\nCan you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone conversation
\nThe best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me<\/p>\n

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
\nDid you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
\nAnd head back toward the Milky Way<\/p>\n

Repeat 1st Chorus<\/p>\n

~~~<\/p>\n

I just love the imagery in this song: ‘acts like summer’, ‘walks like rain’, ‘sail across the sun’, ‘dance along the light of day’… The song’s been around for a while (it came out in 2001) but I heard it on the radio the other day and its been running through my head all week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
