Just One Of Those Things
Molly Johnson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just one of those crazy flings
One of those bells that now and then rings
Just one of those things
It was just one of those nights
Just one of those fabulous flights
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
If we'd thought a bit, of the end of it
When we started painting the town
We'd have been aware that our love affair
Was too hot, not to cool down
So goodbye, dear, and Amen
Here's hoping we meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one of those things
In Molly Johnson's song "Just One Of Those Things," she is describing a brief and intense love affair that was not built to last. The singer acknowledges that their connection was just one of those crazy flings that come and go quickly. They enjoyed each other's company without any regard for the consequences or what it might mean for their future. They experienced a thrilling moment of love that was akin to a trip to the moon on gossamer wings, but they were aware that it was fleeting. The singer reminds us that, had they taken time to think about where it was heading, they would have known that the end was inevitable. The message is clear that we should enjoy the moment while it lasts and embrace the memories that come with it.

It was just one of those things
It was a casual and impulsive experience that was meant to happen
Just one of those crazy flings
A spur of the moment, irrational romance
One of those bells that now and then rings
An exciting and spontaneous opportunity that arises every so often
Just one of those things
A fleeting and temporary event that won't last
It was just one of those nights
A wild and unbelievable evening
Just one of those fabulous flights
A thrilling and exhilarating adventure
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
A journey that is exciting and ethereal
Just one of those things
A rare occurrence that is not predictable
If we'd thought a bit, of the end of it
If we had considered the future outcome of our actions
When we started painting the town
When we began having a good time and enjoying ourselves
We'd have been aware that our love affair
We would have realized that our passionate relationship
Was too hot, not to cool down
Was too intense and short-lived to endure
So goodbye, dear, and Amen
Farewell, my love, with blessings
Here's hoping we meet now and then
Wishing that we cross paths occasionally
It was great fun
It was an enjoyable and memorable experience
But it was just one of those things
Nevertheless, it was an unplanned and irregular event

8 years ago, on the first day of college, I met this girl at freshman orientation in Oregon. I was instantly attracted to her from the first moment I laid eyes on her. She was gorgeous. We quickly became good friends and had a really solid friend group. We all would hangout and spend time together every chance we could. We were both busy a lot because she was on the volleyball team and I was on the baseball team. Sports took up a lot of our time but we still spent a lot of time together. I was in the tail end of a relationship from high school but it was clear that it was coming to an end soon. One night, she told me that she had feelings for me and I remember being extremely shocked, happy, and disappointed. Shocked, because I never thought she would be into someone like me. Happy, because it made me realize these feelings that I have been keeping locked away since we first me. And disappointed because I was getting ready to end a relationship and knew I wasn’t in a place to date. I never told her about my feelings, out of respect for my relationship that was coming to an end. We ended up breaking up very shortly after that which was going to happen regardless of if she confessed her feelings for me or not. Not long after my break up, she met another guy at our school and they began talking. I wanted to be supportive and knew she was worth the wait so we just stayed friends. However, talking turned into dating and they became pretty serious. They ended up dating for about 7 years until they split up recently.
A lot has happened since then, I ended up transferring schools and we slowly stopped staying in touch. She ended up moving to Kansas City to be a high school math teacher and I stayed in Oregon and became a pilot.
The whole time they were in a relationship, I never was in one myself. I couldn’t find anybody that gave me the feeling that she did. My heart says finally tell her how you feel, take a chance, and go for her. But my head says don’t, it’s been too long, she lives on the other side of the country and she doesn’t feel that way anymore. I really really hope that there’s a chance for us, but it just doesn’t seem like the universe will give us a chance.
My advice to anyone reading this that has feelings for someone else but is too afraid to tell them how you really feel, is just go for it. Time moves quick, and you don’t want to end up like me, wishing you took a chance and did something differently.
Suffer the pain of putting yourself out there now, or regret later. And trust me, the pain of regret last much, much longer.
With Love,
Jake

I remember listening to this being in so such a comfy relationship, thinking how thats some hard shit. Now I just got home from a night drinking with my buddies, made some ramen noodles, alone in my apartment, finding myself in the same position… but life moves so fast. Its life, people come and go. All you can do is move on and wish them the best. Its gonna be okay.
