(Don't Go Back To) Rockville by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
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

(Don't Go Back To) Rockville (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Mirando tu reloj por tercera vez
Esperando en la estación el autobús
Yendo a un lugar que está lejos
Tan lejos y si eso no es suficiente
Yendo donde nadie saluda
No hablan con nadie que no conozcan
Terminarás en alguna fábrica
Que es suciedad a tiempo completo y sin ningún lugar adonde ir
Camina a casa a una casa vacía
Siéntate solo
Sé que puede sonar extraño pero creo
Que volverás antes de mucho
No vuelvas a Rockville, no vuelvas a Rockville
No vuelvas a Rockville y desperdicies otro año
Por la noche bebo hasta dormirme
Y finjo que no me importa que no estés aquí conmigo
Porque es mucho más fácil manejar
Todos mis problemas si estoy demasiado lejos en el mar
Pero algo mejor debe pasar pronto
O será demasiado tarde para traerte de vuelta
No vuelvas a Rockville, no vuelvas a Rockville
No vuelvas a Rockville y desperdicies otro año
No es como si realmente te necesitara
Si estuvieras aquí solo te desangraría
Pero todos los demás en la ciudad solo quieren
Derribarte y así no es como debería ser
Sé que puede sonar extraño, pero creo
Que volverás antes de mucho
No vuelvas a Rockville, no vuelvas a Rockville
No vuelvas a Rockville y desperdicies otro año
No vuelvas a Rockville, no vuelvas a Rockville
No vuelvas a Rockville y desperdicies otro año
