Erin Rae & The Meanwhiles – Monticello lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a fond memory
Of a city of time
Set careful in a frame
On an altar in my mind
When i'm hating what's before me
And I do not know my place
There's a longing from within my heart
Puts tears upon my face
[Chorus]
I wish it were Monticello
And I could come to see you
And you might talk me down
And put my mind at ease
If it were Monticello
Well, I'd be at your table
It might be a while now
Don't wait for me
[Verse 2]
As far back as I can see
There's been a wild desire
That pulls me to the road
And swirls in me like fire
Though my happiness is there
And all that's new I find
I still I wish it were here with you
Even now from time to time
[Chorus (x2)]
I wish it were Monticello
And I could come to see you
And you might talk me down
And put my mind at ease
If it were Monticello
Well, I'd be at your table
It might be a while now
Don't wait for me
There's a fond memory
Of a city of time
Set careful in a frame
On an altar in my mind
When i'm hating what's before me
And I do not know my place
There's a longing from within my heart
Puts tears upon my face
[Chorus]
I wish it were Monticello
And I could come to see you
And you might talk me down
And put my mind at ease
If it were Monticello
Well, I'd be at your table
It might be a while now
Don't wait for me
[Verse 2]
As far back as I can see
There's been a wild desire
That pulls me to the road
And swirls in me like fire
Though my happiness is there
And all that's new I find
I still I wish it were here with you
Even now from time to time
[Chorus (x2)]
I wish it were Monticello
And I could come to see you
And you might talk me down
And put my mind at ease
If it were Monticello
Well, I'd be at your table
It might be a while now
Don't wait for me
