True story, happened on a flight I was on. Captain asked everyone to wait while soldiers got off first. But no soldiers stood up. Everyone confused, looking around, and then saw soldiers' caskets coming out from under the plane. Not a dry eye on the fligh

COMING HOME
Charlotte Sands/ Bonnie Warren
(Bonnie: 610-420-9388; 615-636-3609; Bonniewarrenmusic@gmail.com, 2015)
This road's been rough on us
N this job makes holding you tough
I can't wait to board that Friday plane
Back to you, wish I could stay, another day
Chorus:
I' m coming home coming home, to one less night alone,
I'm coming home, coming home back to you
I'm coming, I'm coming
It was raining hard last night
Looking out the window of that southbound flight
We were told there were soldiers aboard
If we could wait, to let 'em off, so we thought
Chorus:
They're coming home, coming home, no more nights alone
Coming home, coming home back to us
They 're coming, they're coming
Bridge:
I never expected
What happened next when
From under the jet
Out rolled the caskets.....
Chorus:
Coming home, coming home, to rest beside their own
They're coming home, coming back to us
They're coming home, coming home they'll never be alone
Coming home, back where they belong
Oh, comin home , comin home
NOTE:
This song is a true story, and is dedicated to the families of those who came home for the last time on that Southwest flight.
