I`m sittin` in the railway station got a ticket for my destination mhm
On a tour of 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
Every day`s an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines mhm
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...
Tonight I`ll sing my songs again I`ll play the game and pretend mhm
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
Like emptiness and harmony I need someone to comfort me
Homeward bound...
Silently for me silently for me
