[Verse 1] Theres a fond memory Of a city of time Set careful in a frame On an altar in my mind When im hating whats before me And I do not know my place Theres 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, Id be at your table It might be a while now Dont wait for me [Verse 2] As far back as I can see Theres been a wild desire That pulls me to the road And swirls in me like fire Though my happiness is there And all thats new I find I still I wish it were here with you Even now from time to time [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, Id be at your table It might be a while now Dont wait for me [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, Id be at your table It might be a while now Dont wait for me
