(Don't Go Back To) Rockville |
| Looking at your watch a third time waiting in the station for a bus |
| Going to a place that’s far, so far away and if that’s not enough |
| Going where nobody says hello, they don’t talk to anybody they don’t know |
| You’ll wind up in some factory that’s full time filth and nowhere left to go |
| Walk home to an empty house, sit around all by yourself |
| I know it might sound strange, but I believe |
| You’ll be coming back before too long |
| Don’t go back to Rockville |
| And waste another year |
| At night I drink myself to sleep and pretend |
| I don’t care if you’re not here with me |
| 'Cause it’s so much easier to handle |
| All my problems if I’m too far out to sea |
| But something better happen soon |
| Or it’s gonna be too late to bring you back |
| It’s not as though I really need you |
| If you were here I’d only bleed you |
| But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down and |
| That’s not how it ought to be |
| I know it might sound strange, but I believe |
| You’ll be coming back before too long |
