Jupiter, named for a planet, wasn't free to be
To be exactly who she ought to be
She saw in colours others couldn't see
Jupiter, named for a planet, would pretend to be
Somebody way less extraordinary
Sometimes I wonder what is wrong with me
Am I bad? Am I wrong? Am I weird in the head?
The only one awake and everyone's in bed
Still, she followed the river where the river led
Right up to heaven, where the billboard read
"I love who I love" (I love who I love)
Oh yeah, I love who I love (I love who I love)
I love who I love, the message from above is "never give up"
Love who you love
Jupiter longed to be herself or die
I wanna burst into a butterfly
Am I bad? Am I wrong? Am I not okay?
Speaking only words that a girl can't say
Still, she followed the rain to where the rainbow lay
All of the angels singing, "Come and say"
"I love who I love" (I love who I love)
Oh yeah, I love who I love (I love who I love)
I love who I love, the message from above is "never give up"
Love who you love
And it's a battle for your song
You had to hide away for so long
When they say your self is wrong (the orchestra of rainbows play)
I love who I love (I love who I love)
Oh yeah, I love who I love (oh, I love who I love)
I love who I love, I struggle with this stuff
Now all I want to say
Is "la-la-la-la-lay" (la-la-la-la-lay)
La-la-la-la-lay (la-la-la-la-lay)
La-la-la-la-lay
Oh, I'm okay, oh, I'm okay (hey, hey, hey)
Ngiyakuthanda ngenyaniso, ngiyakuthanda ngenyaniso
Ngiyakuthanda ngenyaniso (yam yonke sithandwa sami)
Ngiyakuthanda ngenyaniso (yam yonke sithandwa sami)
Ngiyakuthanda ngenyaniso (yam yonke sithandwa sami)
Ngiyakuthanda...
Who you love, love
Love, love, love
Who you love
Love, love
Who you love, love
