So staring through my screen-woven window   Only then can I realize   That burning gas is so high   You can bear your name   And look down to let me see   A glimpse of what I'm missing   A glimpse of what I'm missing      In Rhode Island, oh   In Rhode Island, yeah   In Rhode Island   In Rhode Island      When broken chairs and attitudes   They could not keep me from seeing you   And broken chairs and attitudes   They could not keep me from seeing you      Walking in my sleep, throwing rocks   And wishing my hands were shaking   For someone who's missing me   Looking back on your good intentions   A quest for a reason   To wait for a signal      In Rhode Island, oh   In Rhode Island, yeah   In Rhode Island   In Rhode Island      When broken chairs and attitudes   They could not keep me from seeing you   And broken chairs and attitudes   They could not keep me from seeing you      I've been wading through   All the sad remarks   But now I'm learning for myself    I have to see you   Even one last time   'Cause everything is never forever      In Rhode Island, oh   In Rhode Island, yeah   In Rhode Island   In Rhode Island      When broken chairs and attitudes   They could not keep me from seeing you   And broken chairs and attitudes   They could not keep me from seeing you      And broken chairs and attitudes   They could not keep me from seeing you   And broken chairs and attitudes   They could not keep me from seeing you      Never forever
