lyrics

You find a pearl in every bed 
But in my head you’re finding sand 
And my plan it falls to pieces and I begin to give up hope 
But you, you gave it time 
You comfort it and wait for it, you hope for it and say that it’s 
Mine if I want it, I swear that you should have it,  
I’m picking up your habits and I’m leaving it all behind.

I think I’m going to Michigan,
Where I’ll never see you again 
Everything will finally be alright 
Finally I’ll be alright

Shadows on the television coming through the window 
Made me make a bad decision turning on the radio 
Now NPR is dwelling on scandals in Connecticut 
The weather is so cold, I think I can handle it 
And I am leaving 316 and going somewhere else. 
And I am driving 75 and thinking to myself.

I think I’m going to Michigan,
Where I’ll never see you again 
Everything will finally be alright 
Finally I’ll be alright.

Every song I’ve written lately shows me that I’m demonstrating 
Getting use to losing things I never even thought of saving 
I swear that I will leave this time, cross the Mason-Dixon line
Blasting this song as I’m driving to

Michigan,
Where I’ll never see you again 
Everything will finally be alright 
Finally I’ll be alright

And you fall down, like a waterfall I meant it all 
I never said a word I didn’t 
Mean to be so heartless but the hardest thing was  
Knowing that you never meant a thing

Michigan,
Where I’ll never see you again 
Everything will finally be alright 
Finally I’ll be alright
