I'm sittin in the
railway station
Got a ticket for
my destination Mm ~
On a tour
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 thought's escaping
home where
My music's playing
home where my
Love lies waiting
silently for me
Everyday's an
endless stream of
Cigarettes and
magazines Mm ~
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 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 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 thought's escaping
Home where
my music's playing
Home where
my love lies waiting
Silently for me
silently for me ~
