Drops of Jupiter
Train
Now that she's back in the atmosphere,
With drops of jupiter in her hair, hey
She acts like Summer and walks like rain,
Reminds me that there's time to change,hey
Since the return from her stay on the Moon,
She listens like Spring and she talks like June, hey
But tell me, did you sail across the Sun?
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded?
And that heaven is overrated
And tell me, did you fall for a shooting star?
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there?
Now that she’s back from that soul vacation,
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey,
She checks out Mozart while she does Tae-bo,
Reminds me that there’s room to grow, hey
Now that she’s back in the atmosphere,
I’m afraid that she might think of me as plain ol’ jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly
So he never did land
But tell me, did the wind sweep you off your feet?
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day,
And head back to the Milky Way?
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind?
Was it everything you wanted to find?
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there?
Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken?
Your best friend always sticking up for you
Even when I know you’re wrong
Can you imagine no first dance?
Freeze dried romance five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had, and me
But tell me, did the wind sweep you off your feet?
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day,
And head back toward the Milky Way?
And tell me did you sail across the Sun?
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded?
And that heaven is overrated
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star?
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself...?
And did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day?
And did you fall for a shooting star?
Fall for a shooting star
And now you're lonely looking for yourself out there...

You know certain songs you really love, so you listen over and over and over until one point where you actually got qt sick of it? Then after a long while of not hearing it, it suddenly plays, and you fall in love with it all over? Ok that was not it for me for this song (haha!).. because I memang love it and still am listening to Tanya Chua's fab cover of it in my mp3 player.
But yesterday hearing the 3some band perform it at IndoChine bar at Wisma made me fall in love with it more. I guess now everytime I hear it I'd associate it with mixed ice cream in bread and lotsa lotsa smiles. And I'd smile thinking about that.
Hope this song make yall smile too.. In one way or another..
(Not hard with the line "the best soy latte".. I mean, what IS that? haha..)
