Paul Simon and George Harrison - Homeward Bound lyrics

I'm sitting in the railway station
Got a ticket for my destination
On a tour of one-night-stands
My suitcase and guitar at 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 thoughts escape, at home
Where my music's playing
Home, where my love lies
Waiting silently for me

Every day's an endless dream
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

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 and harmony
I need someone to comfort me silently for me
