Of course, my terms of endearment for my husband do not include Baby, he will be home today not tomorrow, and I do not expect him to be the solution to all my problems. But other than that, this was the best of a surprisingly poor lot of songs on YouTube about one’s beloved returning home. There are a lot more songs available there about missing one’s love, or somebody breaking a lover’s heart and leaving.
I’m hoping you know some better ‘returning home’ songs, and will add them in the comments.
After 35 years, he still puts the light in my eye, and that is as good as life gets.

Flowers For Socrates 
One song about going home that sticks in my mind is this one.
I was on R&R in Sidney, Australia for the days between Christmas and New years 1968 and this song was played everywhere there was a jukebox. Lots of US troops there then, and we all wanted to go home.
One for you buddy. Bill Ellis was 1st Cav. He wrote “Freedom Bird” and performed it in the bunkers. From Austin City Limits in 1992.
My freedom bird was a Green Brannif 707-320C.
Thanks Terry and Chuck!
You gotta love Simon and Garfunkel!
