"Homeward Bound" #5 3/26/1966

After their first album flopped in 1964, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel went their own ways. Paul wound up in England, met a female, and tried to make a go of it with his music. He reportedly wrote this song while in a railway station (and missing his girl) on his way to London. I guess he had a ticket for his destination. Then "The Sounds Of Silence" became a hit, and he and Art got back together. Apparently the girl stayed behind.
