Jupiter Lyrics


Write me a letter
Write it by hand
Tell me everything you want to do before the end
I think we'll make it
Another seventy years
That a the only color we'll see is clear
This future is blacker than a black hole
And I know it's hard to get a read on when's the right time to fold
If you keep on keepin' on and keep your eyes fixed on the road
You'll make it home
Tell me of star stuff
Steady in a cold night sky
Wherever you go I go I
Hit Jupiter and hang a ride
It's a slow ride it's a slow ride
Earth shifting
Temperatures rise
But I will never forget the way your skin tastes in July

It tastes like peaches
It tastes like fine light
When the park stops burning we can settle up our backs
This future is blacker than a black hole
But I know it's hard to get a read on when's
The right time to fall if you keep on keepin' on and
Keep your eyes fixed on the road
You'll make it home
Tell me of star stuff
Steady in the cold night sky
Wherever you go I go I go
I hit Jupiter and hang a ride
It's a slow ride it's a slow ride
If this city should under water go
I will gather up sticks and I will build my love a boat
Float down on the river
Float gently down the stream
Pinch me until I bleed
I want to see the heart dreamin'
But this future is blacker
It's blacker than a black hole
And baby I know it's hard to get a read on when's the right time to fold
When is the right time to fold
Mmm if you keep on keepin on
And keep your eyes fixed on the road
You'll make it home
Tell me of star stuff
Steady in the cold night sky
Wherever you go I go I go
I hit Jupiter and I hang a ride
It's a slow ride it's a slow ride
It's a slow ride it's a slow ride
It's a slow ride it's a slow ride

Aoife (pronounced EEF-ah) grew up in a musical family, immersed in folk music. She went on to study contemporary improvisation at the New England Conservatory of Music in her hometown of Boston. Since her first professional engagement singing lead for the folk group The Wayfaring Strangers, she has maintained a wide variety of side projects and collaborations. Most recently, she has performed and recorded with Ollabelle, Sometymes Why, Karan Casey and Seamus Egan, Jerry Douglas, Jim Lauderdale, Darol Anger, Sarah Jarosz, Sara Watkins, Christina Courtin, Noam Pikelny and Chris Thile (The Punch Brothers).

For the past 10 years, Aoife has been fronting the alt-bluegrass/string band Crooked Still, which she formed when she was 18. Despite her young age, Aoife has toured in ten different countries, performed with the Boston Pops and the Utah Symphony Orchestra and has appeared on countless radio and television programs.

Her natural talent for songwriting recently came to the attention of Alison Krauss, who recorded Aoife’s song Lay My Burden Down, which is included on Alison’s album Paper Airplane (2011 Rounder Records) and can also be heard in the film Get Low (2010 Sony Pictures). Aoife’s crystalline voice has also been heard on True Blood (HBO) and Private Practice (ABC).

In June 2010, Aoife released her first solo recording in the form of a limited edition 7” vinyl. Featuring two original tracks, it garnered rave reviews from audiophiles worldwide.

Aoife has just finished a project with Yo-Yo Ma, Chris Thile, Edgar Meyer and Stuart Duncan titled The Goat Rodeo Sessions released in October 2011 (Sony Masterworks).

Aoife is currently performing shows with her band, Robin MacMillan on drums, Jacob Silver on bass and Ryan Scott on guitar, with plans to record a full length album in 2012. Originally from Newton, Massachusettes, Aoife makes her home in the musical hotbed of Brooklyn, NY.
