Going Home
Going home, going home,
To where it all began.
Leaving my army family life,
Back to the real family strife.
Going home, going home,
My heart gave out a groan.
Remembering when I had left,
Ten years on, feeling so bereft.
Going home, going home,
I never knew my father then,
I never knew my Dad above,
Never felt either's love.
Going home, going home,
Now I have more insight.
My earthly family, now all gone.
The Father's family and I are one.
I am home at last.
