This is the 1994 lyrical talent of EV shining through, but written through the lens of words only a person grown into middle age can write.
It's a complicated song. There's sadness, but there's also anger, resignation, and regret.
That whole section is perfect

Absolutely love this song. Probably my favorite Ed song since he went on that tear with Vitalogy and No Code. Makes me think of the character from Off He Goes looking back on his relationships and life with 25 years of maturity.

Been listening to this one since the album came out--as a critic of a lot of the post-Riot Act output, I am pleased to say I love this song. Definitely see the Parting Ways comparisons; I even hear some Temple of the Dog in this. It's focused and touching, the lyrics are delicate and sophisticated in a way a lot of the modern-era ballads aren't. The melody is legitimately beautiful, the arrangement is spare and restrained. Completely caught me off guard.
