	Story Behind the Song Video Treatment By James Hooker-Copyright James Hooker Productions (should be positive enough for the DOD to pay for about 310% of the video cost!!!) First verse and chorus male part opens with Pilot overseas in FA-18 Super Hornet turning and burning--great visuals....then returning to base or carrier (carrier please...I’m a Navy freak!) on the way back from mission he flips up his visor for a minute and closes his eyes..after he’s there, falls exhausted into bunk and closes his eyes and sees....you guessed it! Second verse and chorus female part opens with the missus holding down the fort in the million and one ways they do that and all the time thinking about him....you know, Chick Flik stuff!!.......during her chorus she closes her eyes and sees him closing his eyes in his bunk Third verse and end choruses Male and Female opens with fleet returning home...Male in cockpit approaching the field dropping the gear and barn doors. Female standing on the ramp with other loved ones...waiting....at this point, cut to actual footage of families being re-united....run this footage throughout end of song. { Lyrics The Lights Of Home Lyric and Music by James Hooker Desert Shoals Music, ASCAP ---------------------------------------- DUET Male: It don't help my disposition Leavin' you there It just makes worse the inquisition That brings me here Far away from my home In that southern land But I won't let it get me down I'll just lay my head down (this is the desired lyric line as opposed to demo) when I close my eyes I can see for miles When I close my eyes I can see the lights of home I can see the lights of home Female: It don't hurt to be stronger than all of my fears when I think about the miles between us There might be a tear Oh but only for a minute Then I realize we're both in this thing Up to our ears I know you feel the same And at the end of your day you can close your eyes you can see for miles you can close your eyes You can see the lights of home Male: Well the gear and flaps are down And I'm almost on the ground And in her arms Female: I stand out on the ramp And my heart beats a bit quicker Like a hummingbird Both: We both knew this night would end We both knew this day would come sooner or later Either or both: We never let it get us down We kept our feet on the ground Both: And when we closed our eyes We could see the lights When we closed our eyes We could see the lights of home Every time we closed our eyes We could see for miles and miles When we closed our eyes We could see the lights of home We could see the lights of home e
