In their song "Homeward Bound", Simon and Garfunkel talk about a singer on the road who has grown tired of the road. In part they say:
Everyday'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

Why would they say something like this when most people think that traveling is fun and singing before hundreds of adoring fans would be an adrenaline rush?
