Art Garfunkel Homeward Bound lyrics

I'm sittin' in the railway station got a ticket to my destination
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 waitin' silently for me

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 every stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be

Homeward bound, ooh and I wish I was Homeward bound

Home where my thought's escaping, home where my music's playing
Home where my love lies waitin' silently for me

Tonight I'll sing his songs again, I'll play the game and pretend
But all his words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me

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 waitin' silently for me, silently for me
