Lyrics

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 no one they don't know
 ♪
 You'll wind up in some factory
 That's full of 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
 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
 ♪
 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 everyone in town only wants to bring you down
 And that's how it's supposed 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
