I?m sitting in the railway station,
Got a ticket for my destination.
On a tour of one-night stands, my suitcase
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 each town looks the same to me, the
movies and the factories.
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.

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
Silently for me
