| Have you ever been baptized |
| In the cool winter water |
| On a Sunday morning |
| When the sky was gray? |
| You filed out of the churchyard |
| So cold it was silver |
| Into gold, tan, and blue cars |
| And the cars drove away |
| And all the memories fade |
| Send the ghosts on their way |
| Tell them they've had their day |
| It's someone else's tomorrow |
| The tall and the tiny |
| Ships on the water |
| Farther and farther |
| Floating away |
| Will never return now |
| All wooden and burned down |
| They echo and groan now |
| In their salty graves |
| All the memories fade |
| Send the the ghosts on their way |
| Tell them they've had their day |
| It's someone else's tomorrow |
| Someone else's tomorrow |
Someone Else's Tomorrow
