The song "Lovin' Arms" by the Wood Brothers has a total angsty Bones POV feel for me. Personally I heart Kirk/Bones, so that's the kind of lens I'm seeing it through, but it could really be Bones/anyone. It's a beautiful song regardless, y'all should listen to it (http://www.last.fm/music/The+Wood+Brothers/_/Lovin%27+Arms). I submit the lyrics as evidence:

Ridin' a big jet plane
Cryin' into your sleeve
'Cause you miss those lovin' arms

A lullaby keeps on playing'
You're thinking it's a dream
'Cause you miss those lovin arms

And you got a good mind to pray
They it's all part of His plan
But what if He's got slippery hands?

Well it's a sad face you're wearin'
Like a burned out sun
'Cause you miss those lovin' arms

You'd think a grown man would care
'Bout his bootlace undone
But you just miss those lovin' arms

God damn, you're a boy, not a man
When you miss those lovin' arms

Well someday, when you're up there flying
And you miss those lovin' arms
It isn't so far away, that sweet lullaby,
When you miss those lovin' arms


Pining, loneliness, self-chastisement for being a sap, and a hint of aviophobia - with a hopeful ending.
