(Don’t Go Back to) Rockville

Lyrics for (Don’t Go Back to) Rockville

Looking at your watch a third time Waiting in the station for the 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 Don't go back to Rockville Don't go back to Rockville And waste another year At night, I drink myself to sleep And pretend I don't care that 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 Don't go back to Rockville Don't go back to Rockville Don't go back to Rockville And waste another year 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 Don't go back to Rockville Don't go back to Rockville Don't go back to Rockville And waste another year Don't go back to Rockville Don't go back to Rockville Don't go back to Rockville And waste another year
