Homeward Bound/Home by Simon & Garfunkel/Phillip Phillips is a mash-up featured in Thanksgiving, the eighth episode of Season Four. It is sung by Finn, Mercedes, Mike, Puck, Quinn, and Santana.

Quinn's return to McKinley is revealed as she begins singing the song alone on the auditorium stage. Joining her is Puck, followed by Mike, Santana, Mercedes, and Finn. The former seniors of McKinley (with the exception of Rachel and Kurt, who are in New York) reunite with the song. Finn, Puck, and Quinn sing on stage, Puck playing the guitar, as Mercedes, Mike and Santana sing near the auditorium seats and soon join the other three on stage. At the end, Quinn says "Home for the holidays, just as we promised." After Puck warns Finn that he'll kick his ass if he starts crying, they take each other in for a group hug.

Quinn:
I'm sitting in a railway station
Got a ticket for my destination
Oh, oh

Puck:
On a tour of one-night stands
My suitcase and guitar in hand

Puck and Quinn:
And every stop is neatly planned
For a poet and a one-man band

Mike (and Santana):
This wave (Santana: Wave)
(Is stringing us along) (Santana: Along)

Mike with Santana:
Just know you’re not alone

Mike:
Cause I’m gonna make this place your home

Santana:
Everyday's an endless stream
Of cigarettes and magazines
Oh, oh

Mercedes with Santana:
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

Finn with Alumni (Mercedes):
The trouble, it might drag you down (Ooh)

Finn with Santana and Alumni:
If you get lost, you can always be found

Finn and Santana (Mercedes):
Just know you’re not alone (Know you're not alone)

Finn and Quinn:
Cause I’m going to make this place your home

Alumni (Mercedes):
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Santana: Where my thought's escaping)
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Where my music's playing)
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Oh)

Quinn:
Where my love lies waiting silently for me

Finn, Mercedes, and Santana with Alumni:
Settle down, it'll all be clear
The trouble, it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found

Finn and Santana (Mercedes):
Just know you’re not alone (Know you're not alone)

Finn and Quinn (with Santana and Alumni):
Cause I’m gonna (make this place your home)

Mercedes with Alumni (Santana):
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Where my music's playing)
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

Mercedes (and Santana):
I'm gonna make, I'm gonna make
Make this place your (home)

Alumni (Mercedes):
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Know you're not alone) (Santana: Where my music's playing)

Mercedes with Alumni (Santana):
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Woah-oh, aah)

Mercedes:
I'm gonna make, I'm gonna make
Make this place our home

Alumni (Mercedes):
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Know you're not alone)
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Oh)

Trivia[]

  • The version on GleeOnFox's YouTube channel didn't include Quinn and Puck's solos at the beginning. It was deleted after a few months, along with the other performances from the season.
  • This is the first time that Mike, Quinn, and Puck sing in the fourth season of Glee; as well as being the only time Mike sings a solo in the whole season.
  • The three people that start out on stage were part of Will's Group while the three that start in the audience were part of Sue's Kids in the Season One episode, Throwdown.
  • This is the third time out of four times a song named "Home" is performed in the show. This is the only time it is used in a mash-up.

Mistakes[]

  • When Santana, Mercedes, and Mike are walking up to the stage, Santana's supposed to sing "Woah", but you can see her singing "Oh".
