1. I'm sitting in the railway station got a ticket for my destination hm 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. R: 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. 2. Ev'ry day's an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines hm 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. R: 3. Tonight I'll sing my songs again I'll play the game and pretend hm but all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me. R: + silently for me ...
