Using today's prompt, the song that quickly comes to mind is Home by Daughtry. One of my favorite bands over the last 15+ years and one of my favorite songs by them as well. A song that really talks about being on the road and being ready to get back home to your family.

[Verse 1]
I'm staring out into the night
Trying to hide the pain
I'm going to the place where love
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing
And the pain you feel's a different kind of pain

[Chorus]
Well, I'm going home
To the place where I belong
And where your love has always been enough for me
I'm not running from
No, I think you've got me all wrong
I don't regret this life I chose for me
But these places and these faces are getting old
So, I'm going home
Well, I'm going home

[Verse 2]
The miles are getting longer, it seems
The closer I get to you
I've not always been the best man or friend for you
But your love remains true
And I don't know why
You always seem to give me another try
