Another Way

We got married in a hotel in Michigan
I didn't think it was something that I was gonna do again
And nobody ever said it was my second one
But nobody said it wasn't
In the rental car console
There's a diamond ring
And we slept in on a
California King
and all the guilty feelings
That it's gon' bring
But we're starin' at the ceilin'
Breathing in
Slowly the waves
Are gonna roll the other way

Another way
Someday I wanna be another way
Another way
Another way
Someday I wanna be another way
Another way

And in the mornin'
We'll drive over that Great Lake shimmerin'
And at the border
They're gonna ask which country we livin' in
And I'm gonna say
We got hitched up there near Ithaca
And you'll dig out the certificate
And right there on your left hand
Is that diamond ring
And you spin it on your finger
Whenever your thinkin'
Now all the guilty feelings
This kind of thing could bring
I know nobody gets to begin again
Shit, we tryin' everything we can
And slowly the waves
Are gonna roll the other way

Another way
Someday I wanna be another way
Another way
Another way
Someday I wanna be another way

By the time she let me go
She kind of hummed an "I don't know"
And sent me to bed with a hug
I know it's the sound of a shrug
And finally
Every language
Every country
They knew exactly what she said
But she didn't know what she meant
Anymore

We got married in a hotel in Michigan
I didn't think it was something that I was gonna do again
