I'm sitting in the railway staition Got a ticket for my destination On a tour of one-night stands my suicase and guitar in hand And ev'ry stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band Homeward Bound I wish I was Homeward Bound Home where my thought's escaping Home where my music's playing Home where my love lies waiting Silently for me Ev'ry day's an endless stream Of cigarettes and magazines And ev'ry stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be Homeward Bound I wish I was Homeward Bound Home where my thought's escaping Home where my music's playing Home where my love lies waiting Silently for me Tonight I'll sing my songs again I'll play the game and pretend But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me Homeward Bound I wish I was Homeward Bound Home where my thought's escaping Home where my music's playing Home where my love lies waiting Silently for me
