International dateline
International dateline
Far out over the Pacific
Out over the nebulous sea
On the other side of the globe
You'll arrive
In some other tomorrow
Tuesday came
You did not
Your parents said you made a call
You quit your job
You caught a plane
Set your aim on better stock
In the jet stream floats a dream
Far out over the dateline
In yet another Tuesday
You'll arrive
For some other lover
For some other lover
For some other lover
Some other lover
Some other lover
In a calmer world if the wind blows
Stretching your tether
Compressing your heart
In a calmer world if the wind blows
Then it blows
International dateline

One last announcement
As a final precaution
Please extinguish all smoking
And fasten your seat belts
Low and tight across your hips
Into the cloud bank
And plucked from the air
Was it random chance
Was it circumstance
The air coach never landed?
And the crew I never knew
Became eternal confessors
It was just as I suspected
Just as I might have thought
I really did love you
I really did care
Taste the tips of granite
We are the snow floating through branches
We are blessed by the evergreen fir
And the pure, pure, purest atmosphere
The purest atmosphere
In the dead of night
No siren cries
She's the upper hand
At all times
