Homeward Bound 

 

Paul simon

 

I'm sitting in the railway station.

Got a ticket to my destination.

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 thought's escaping,

Home where my music's playing,

Home where my love lies waiting

Silently for me.

Every day's an endless stream

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 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.

 

回家的路

 

我坐在火车站

拿到目的地的车票

在一夜长的旅途有立着的皮箱和手中的吉他

每一站都是为诗人和独人乐队有序的计划

回家的路

只是我的心愿

回家的路

家才有我的思想奔放

家才有我的音乐悠扬

家才有我的恋人躺着

静静地等着我

每天流水般循环着

香烟和杂志

一样的城镇， 一样的影院， 一样的工厂

每张陌生的脸都让我渴望在

回家的路

只是我的心愿

回家的路

家才有我的思想奔放

家才有我的音乐悠扬

家才有我的恋人躺着

静静地等着我

今晚我会再唱我的歌，

我会做戏掩饰

可是我的歌词如此无聊

像和声里的空虚我需要人来安抚

回家的路

只是我的心愿

回家的路

家才有我的思想奔放

家才有我的音乐悠扬

家才有我的恋人躺着

静静地等着我

静静地等着我
