Letra:

[English]

I'm sittin' in the railway station, got a ticket for my destination

Mm, mm

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 thoughts are escaping

Home, where my music's playin'

Home, where my love lies waitin' silently for me

Every day's an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines

Mm, mm

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

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 game and pretend

Mm, mm, mm

But all my 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 thoughts are escaping

Home, where my music's playin'

Home, where my love lies waitin' silently for me

Silently for me

Gramática:

  • I'm sittin' in the railway station, got a ticket for my destination

    ➔ Presente Contínuo (sitting) para uma ação que está acontecendo agora; Elipse (omissão de 'I have' em 'got a ticket')

    ➔ Esta linha usa o Presente Contínuo, "sittin'", para descrever uma ação que está acontecendo no momento da fala. A elipse de "I have" em "got a ticket" é comum na fala informal e nas letras de músicas.

  • And every stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band

    ➔ Voz Passiva (is planned); Uso de "for" para indicar propósito

    "Is planned" está na voz passiva, enfatizando que o planejamento foi feito para o falante/intérprete, não pelo falante. "For" indica o propósito do planejamento: acomodar o intérprete.

  • Home, where my thoughts are escaping

    ➔ Oração Relativa (where my thoughts are escaping) usando "where" como advérbio relativo.

    "Where" introduz uma oração relativa que modifica "Home". Refere-se ao lugar onde a ação da oração acontece.

  • Every day's an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines

    ➔ Concordância Sujeito-Verbo (Day's/is); Uso do genitivo "'s" para indicar posse/atribuição.

    "Day's" é uma contração de "Day is". O 's mostra que o fluxo interminável é atribuído ou é uma característica de cada dia na turnê.

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

    ➔ Concordância Sujeito-Verbo (face reminds); Oração Substantiva (that I long to be) como objeto de "reminds".

    ➔ O sujeito singular "face" concorda com o verbo singular "reminds". A oração "that I long to be" funciona como o objeto direto do verbo "reminds".

  • But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity

    ➔ Frase Preposicional (in shades of mediocrity); Concordância Sujeito-Verbo (words come)

    "In shades of mediocrity" é uma frase preposicional que modifica o verbo "come back". "Words" está no plural, então o verbo também está no plural.

  • Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me

    ➔ Inversão (I need someone; ordem normal das palavras); Infinitivo de propósito (to comfort me).

    ➔ A estrutura "I need someone to comfort me" é uma estrutura típica. "To comfort me" mostra o propósito de precisar de alguém.
