10,000 Maniacs Don't Go Back To Rockville Lyrics

Looking at your watch a third time
Waiting at 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,
Don't talk to anybody they don't know

You'll wind up in some factory
Some low time job and nowhere else 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
And lately 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

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 leave you
But everybody else in town
They only wants to bring you down
That's not how it ought to be
Well, 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
