I'm sittin' in the railway ____, got a ticket for my destination
Mm, mm
On a ____ of one-night stands, my suitcase and guitar in hand
And every stop is neatly ____ for a poet and a one-man band
Homeward-bound
Home, where my ____ are escaping
Home, where my music's playin'
Home, where my ____ lies waitin' silently for me
Every day's an endless ____ of cigarettes and magazines
Mm, mm
And each town looks the ____ to me, the movies and the factories
And every stranger's ____ I see reminds me that I long to be
Homeward-bound
I wish I was homeward-bound
Home, where my thoughts are escaping
Home, where my music's playin'
Home, where my love lies waitin' silently for me
Tonight I'll sing my songs again, I'll play the ____ and pretend
Mm, mm, mm
But all my ____ come back to me in shades of mediocrity
Like emptiness in ____ I need someone to comfort me
Homeward-bound
I wish I was homeward-bound
Home, where my thoughts are escaping
Home, where my music's playin'
Home, where my love lies waitin' silently for me
Silently for me
