Artist/Band: 10,000 Maniacs
Lyrics for Song: Don't Go Back To Rockville
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - 10,000 Maniacs



[ original version by R.E.M. ]



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
