Life is funny in a way where you can never have it all…
There is just no way.
I guess that is how the universe maintains some sort of balance. I figured, if you had it all you would burst.
Drops of Jupiter (Train) Lyrics
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 a time to change, hey
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, 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?
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star?
One without a permanent scar
And then you missed 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 was 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 then you missed 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?
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 then you missed 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
I love the song. First time I had a glimpse of the entire lyrics. Songs with lyrics about space and cosmos turns me on 🙂
woot woot! that sounds sexy!
I love this too. I would play this over and over on my ipod. 🙂
I also love Hey Soul Sister 🙂
it’s a good song too! fan talaga ako ng train, pati the script. check mo, medyo pareho ng tunog.
it is one of my favorite songs too. i have it on my ipod.
one can argue the universe is always in balance, that it is we humans who are unpredictable and various.
certainly, humans are more short-sighted than nature.
balance and perspective are close cousins.
i hope you are enjoying a wonderful weekend, prinsesa.
i found that compared to other forms of life we can be very, very stupid. LOL
yup. yup. you would burst.
i love love the song. 🙂
i don’t want to burst, haha. ganda no? very poetic lyrics.
hindi na magiging exciting ang buhay kung nakukuha mo lahat. di ka na mag-eefort. di ka na masasabik.
true, true. aanhin pa ang tao kung hindi siya magwawant.
some songs are just poetic, ano

hey PM, this poem, my aunt sent me this poem, bagay na bagay sa first line mo 🙂
I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter how gray the day may appear.
I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.
I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.
I wish you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear bigger.
I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.
I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.
I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.
oo nga no. nice poem manilenya 🙂
