Homeward Bound

2008.03.12
We're sitting at the railway station, Got a ticket for our destination...........Bahnhof Station, Zurich

And ev'ry stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be,
Homeward bound,

And each town looks the same to me,

On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand.

And ev'ry stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band.
Homeward bound,
I wish I was,

Home where my love lies waiting
Silently for me.

Homeward Bound by Simon & Garfunkel

I'm sitting in the railway station.
Got a ticket for my destination.
On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand.
And ev'ry 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 waiting
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 ev'ry stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be,
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 waiting
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 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 waiting
Silently for me.
Silently for me.

Homeward Bound by Simon & Garfunkel

oldbabe You know, you have some of the best pictures to go with that song which reminds me of my younger days!!! You are pretty creative!

I like the view through the arched doorway the best.

Mabi938 The two first picts made me think about somewhere I saw in Cuba. It was a school for dancing.

photopoet As I scrolled through this set and then listened to Homeward Bound I marveled at how well you integrated the wonderful photos with words. Magnificent.

meiling Love your use of shadows and light (I have not ever looked at Zurich in this 'light'!), and the inclusion of the Simon and Garfunkel lyric is so very appropriate. Thank you for sharing.
