"Out of the Day"

Last week, I re-learned the opening guitar figure and the chords for "Out of the Day."  I was thinking about the song again yester-day, and I realized that in the line "Driving home; I'll soon be home" at the end of each verse, the "home"s are both song to the tonic note (D), the musical "home" of the key (D minor).  Usually, the first "home" is sung with a descending melisma (E D), and the second is sung to a single pitch (D), but near the end of the song, there are two "home"s sung with an ascending melisma (C D).
