Obscure ANYA Lyric Question

Posted by:	Whistler 09:51 pm EDT 08/16/14

Yeah, I know: few people know ANYA or its recording, but if you happen to, I'm trying to puzzle out a lyric. It's the same as sung either by Irra Petina the first time or by the chorus the second. The song: Homeward Late in either section: "... A bass guitar plays a melancholy strain, AND ALL THE THINGS THAT I WAIT TO KNOW I NEVER THOUGHT CAN BE, Homeward. Homeward..." It's the part in caps. That's an approximation and some of the right words, but THINGS is probably wrong and BE is probably wrong. If you can figure it out, please let me know. Thanks. Also, while searching online for the lyrics, I discovered that Irra Petina was the daughter of General Stephen Petin, Czar Nicholas II's personal escort, and a goddaughter of the Dowager Empress Marie Feodorovna. And the proper pronunciation of Petina's last name is PEH-ti-na, something else I've had wrong for 50 years.
