Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

I'm sittin' 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 playin'
Home, where my love lies waitin' 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

Homeward bound, I wish I was homeward bound
Home, where my thoughts escape, at 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
But all my words come back to me,
in shades of mediocrity
Like emptiness and harmony,
I need someone to comfort me

Homeward bound, I wish I was homeward bound
Home, where my thoughts escape, at home,
where my music's playin'
Home, where my love lies waitin' silently for me

Silently for me
