the stutter of rain ..." ❤ excerpt (c) Amy Schutzer

✰ drops of jupiter ✰

Drops of Jupiter

Now that she's back in the atmosphere 
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey 
She acts like Summer and walks like rain 
Reminds me that there's time to change, hey, hey 
Since the return from her stay on the moon 
She listens like Spring and she talks like June, hey, hey 
Hey, hey. 

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 out there? 

Now that she's back from that soul vacation 
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey 
She checks out Mozart while she does Tae Bo 
Reminds me that there's room to grow, hey, hey, yeah. 

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. 

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? 

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, 
Na, na, na 

And did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day? 

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, 
Na, na, na 

And did you fall for a shooting star? 
Fall for a shooting star? 

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, 
Na, na, na 

And are you lonely looking for yourself out there?
