Homeward Bound

[Verse 1:]

I'm sitting in the railway station

Got a ticket to 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

[Chorus:]

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

[Verse 2:]

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

[Repeat Chorus:]

[Bridge:]

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

[Repeat Chorus:]
