Homeward Bound

In the quiet misty morning
When the moon has gone to bed
When the sparrows stop their singing
And the sky is clear and red
When the summer ceased its gleaming
When the corn is passed it's prime
When adventure's lost its meaning
I'll be homeward bound in time

Bind me not to the pasture
Chain me not to the plow
Set me free to find my calling
And I'll return it you somehow

If you find it's me you're missing
If you're hoping I return
To your thoughts I'll soon be listening
And in the road I'll stop and turn
Then the wind will set me racing
As my journey nears its end
And the path I'll be retracing
When I'm homeward bound again

Bind me not to the
Chain me not to the plow
Set me free to find my calling
And I'll return it you somehow
Bind me not to the
Chain me not to the plow
Set me free to find my calling
And I'll return it you somehow

Then the wind will set me racing
As my journey nears its end
And the path I'll be retracing
When I'm homeward bound again

Bind me not to the
Chain me not to the plow
Set me free to find my calling
And I'll return it you somehow
Bind me not to the
Chain me not to the plow
Set me free to find my calling
And I'll return it you somehow
