[PAUL SIMON]
Ladies and gentlemen
This is Sabrina Carpenter
[SABRINA CARPENTER]
This is the one and only
Paul Simon
[PAUL]
I sang this song with George Harrison on Saturday Night Live in 1976
[SABRINA]
I was not born then
Um, and neither were my parents
[PAUL]
Well, then
I'm glad they're getting a chance to hear it tonight
[SABRINA]
Me too
(sung)
[Verse 1: Paul Simon, Paul & Sabrina Carpenter]
Sittin' in the railway station
Ticket for my destination, mmm
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
[Chorus: Paul & Sabrina, Paul]
Homeward bound
I wish I was
Homeward bound
Home, where my thought's еscaping
Home, where my music's playing
Homе, where my love lies waiting
Silently for me
[Verse 2: Sabrina, Paul & Sabrina]
Everyday's an endless stream
Of airport lounges, magazines, mmm
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
[Chorus: Sabrina & Paul, Sabrina, Paul]
Homeward bound
Oh,oh, 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
[Verse 3: Paul, Paul & Sabrina]
Tonight I'll sing my songs again
I'll play the game and pretend, mmm
But all my words come back to me
Shades of mediocrity
Like emptiness in harmony
I need someone to comfort me
[Chorus: Paul & Sabrina, Paul, Sabrina]
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
