richmond

you know i wish i was in richmond

you know i do

wish i was back home

you know i wish i was in richmond

the land i was raised

the place i've always known

and now i'm waiting in new york city

the rain is falling

no one seems to see

and all the salesmen

they take notice

forget the rushing lives for the rushing brides to be

you know i wish i was in richmond

you know i do

i wish i was back home

she didn't change me

she forgave me

so now it's time

time for me to leave

like broken glass in my broken hands

i'm broken down

this i do believe

you know i wish i was in richmond

you know i do

wish i was back home

you know i wish i was in richmond

the land i was raised

the place i've always known

and as a frost comes

i've learned some

not to make the same mistakes again

laws are learned as rule books burn

but what all i know leads to still

my friend

i'm going back

back to richmond

you know i am

you know i'm going home

i'm going back

back to richmond

the land i was raised

the place that i call home
