I'm sittin' in the railway station got a ticket for my destination |
|
On a tour of one night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand |
|
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 the music's playing |
|
Home where my love was waitin' silently for me |
|
Now every day's an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines |
|
And each town looks the same to me for movies and the factories |
|
And every stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be |
|
Homeward bound... |
|
[Strings] |
|
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 and harmony I need someone to comfort me |
|
Homeward bound... |
