Jonathan & Jupiter from Fixers & Elixirs by Frederick Julius

Miss Nebraska was a beauty queen;
left the farm for a rider of the purple sage.
But good men are few and far between,
none of her soul and always twice her age.
Everything’s boring when you’re constantly soaring
up and away.

Gentle Jonathan was a healing man
riding west on a horse he called Jupiter.
If anyone can fix you, Johnny can;
mend her broken heart and ride along through to get her
back up and soaring; picture-perfect days pouring
down again.

There’s a sweet end to your sorrowful tale
All you need are four legs that won’t fail you.

Sleep, Jupiter, sleep. Jupiter, sleep.
While the stars waltz above you.
Sleep, Jupiter, sleep. Jupiter, sleep.
Jonathan loves you.

Well, Gentle Jonathan had to sail away
on a dark ship to an island where it’s always spring
And Miss Nebraska just dreams all day
of a sun-sweetened morning when she’ll get to sing
“Life wasn’t boring because you kept me soaring.”
And she prays

Sleep, Jupiter, sleep. Jupiter, sleep.
While the stars waltz above you.
Sleep, Jupiter, sleep. Jupiter, sleep.
Jonathan loves you.
