International Airport

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Wide awake

I'm on a plane out of town.

Fly away from the weight

Of the world on the ground.

I'm international,

But I don't know where to go.

Hopefully, where summer days

Can melt these winter bones.

I'm international,

And you're orbiting my brain,

I'm reduced to writing nothing

All over napkins on the plane.

Wide-awake -

I'm on a plane out of town.

Taking pictures of myself

In the mirror on wall,

Trying hard not to make my space

The loneliest place of all.

Early warning all across the sky,

Clouds are rolling in on your light.

Any change from here would be

The wisest change of all,

Any place from here up here

Would be the finest place to fall

Wide awake

I'm on a plane out of town.

I'm losing track of myself

On all the time zone lines.

And if I daylight save,

Do I jump ahead or fall behind?

And I'm fine 'cause I know,

Any plane I ride can fly me home.

And I'm fine 'cause I know.

You know, I know.

It's easy to see,

Clouds were built for dreams,

Because nothing up there

Is as easy as it seems.

I step out and try to walk around,

As I fall, I look up

And wonder why it let me down.

I'm international,

That's twice the speed of sound...

I just hope I take off from here

Before I hit the ground.

If I could get to heaven

By an airplane in the sky,

We would always be in love

And we would always love to fly.

Wide awake

I'm on a plane out of town.

Taking pictures of myself

In the mirror on wall,

Trying hard not to make my space

The loneliest place of all.

And I'm fine 'cause I know,

Any plane I ride can fly me home.

And I'm fine 'cause I know.

You know, I know

And I'm fine 'cause I know,

Any plane I ride can fly me home.

And I'm fine 'cause I know,

Any plane I ride can fly me home.

You know, I know

You know, I know
