Steam Powered Giraffe - That'll Be The Way Home Lyrics
A man takes off from an airfield
and he's a'soaring very far from home
'cause he flies a B-17 straight through the sky
He's homesick and he knows
it'll be a long time till he's done
waiting at home
He opens up a letter from her. She writes,
here's a color picture of me
(a pretty picture)
Just head towards my blue eyes,
when you're finding your way back to me
Well,
That'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll
Yes,
That'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll
That'll be the way home
Straight through the sky
headed towards her blue eyes
A lieutenant of the Navy
took his very first steps today
Onto the ship that would become his new home
He and his wife
had shared a very special goodbye
when they kissed in the night underneath
a star of their own
As the lieutenant gazed up
and saw their star shining bright
(oh so bright)
He knew it would guide him home
when the time was right
Well,
That'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll
That'll be the way home
Yes,
That'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll
That'll be the way home
Starin' into the night
Keeping their star in sight
All you infantry men and you riveting gals
don't ever need to give up hope
all you doctors, and nurses, and engineers
need not worry for long
If we all look towards what we miss most
and keep that drive in our heart
Well,
That'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll
That'll be the way home
Yes,
That'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll that'll
That'll be the way home

For a moment I thought the song could have been talking about Commander Walter's beginnings before becoming commander, but guess this would have happened before his time. Lovely tune!
If this had come out in WWII, it'd have been a number one hit. It's just that heart-sweet.
This is a song about WWII.
If you play it alongside Tommy Dorsey or The Andrews Sisters, it fits *perfectly*.
SPG: the vocals are incredible, the musicianship is great, but their songwriting is simply spectacular.
I mean, c'mon, in Red Suspenders, they rhyme 'Bucket' with 'Nantucket,' and no one has done that in 75 years.
How can such a happy tune make me sob so much? 💔
One of my all time favorite songs. First heard it as a young Lieutenant of the Navy, right before taking my first steps on my first ship. My jaw dropped when I heard it because I knew it was describing me in two weeks. It truly helped me and my wife get through my first deployment.
is it me, or is this song basically perfect for Veteran's Day?
Lily's (Airhearts) husband sings this im guessing
Miss Fluffy It mentions this song in Airheart aswell, cant remember the exact lyrics so i cant say when and what context though
The phrase " That'll be the way home" occurs in 'Airheart'.
Lily's (Airhearts) husband sings this im guessing
