[00:05.43]I'm sitting in the railway station.
[00:08.14]Got a ticket to my destination.
[00:12.07]
[00:16.31]On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand.
[00:21.31]And every stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band.
[00:26.07]Homeward bound,
[00:30.70]I wish I was,
[00:33.02]Homeward bound,
[00:37.09]Home where my thought's escaping,
[00:39.40]Home where my music's playing,
[00:42.03]Home where my love lies waiting
[00:44.59]Silently for me.
[00:48.65]Every day's an endless stream
[00:51.09]Of cigarettes and magazines.
[00:53.53]And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories
[01:03.61]And every stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be,
[01:09.30]Homeward bound,
[01:13.49]I wish I was,
[01:15.36]Homeward bound,
[01:19.36]Home where my thought's escaping,
[01:21.62]Home where my music's playing,
[01:24.11]Home where my love lies waiting
[01:26.61]Silently for me.
[01:28.24]
[01:30.76]Tonight I'll sing my songs again,
[01:33.07]I'll play the game and pretend.
[01:36.39]
[01:40.93]But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
[01:44.56]Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me.
[01:50.69]Homeward bound,
[01:55.43]I wish I was,
[01:57.50]Homeward bound,
[02:00.44]Home where my thought's escaping,
[02:03.31]Home where my music's playing,
[02:05.81]Home where my love lies waiting
[02:08.37]Silently for me.
[02:11.00]Silently for me.
