Homeward Bound
I'm sitting in the railway station
Got a ticket for my destination, mm-mm
On a tour of one-night stands
My suitcase and guitar in hand
And every stop is neatly planned
For a poet and a one-man band
Homeward-bound
I wish I was homeward-bound
Home where my thoughts are skipping
Home where my music's playing
Home where my love lies waiting silently for me
Every day's an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines
And each town looks the same to me
The movies and the factories
And every stranger's face I see
Reminds me that I long to be
Homeward-bound
I wish I was homeward-bound
Home where my thoughts are skipping
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, mm-mm
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 thoughts are skipping
Home where my music's playing
Home where my love lies waiting silently for me
Silently for me
Got a ticket for my destination, mm-mm
On a tour of one-night stands
My suitcase and guitar in hand
And every stop is neatly planned
For a poet and a one-man band
Homeward-bound
I wish I was homeward-bound
Home where my thoughts are skipping
Home where my music's playing
Home where my love lies waiting silently for me
Every day's an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines
And each town looks the same to me
The movies and the factories
And every stranger's face I see
Reminds me that I long to be
Homeward-bound
I wish I was homeward-bound
Home where my thoughts are skipping
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, mm-mm
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 thoughts are skipping
Home where my music's playing
Home where my love lies waiting silently for me
Silently for me
