Well done.  I love the sentiment presented in this song.  The instrumentation is very good and complements the lyrics.  Your vocals are spot on --- they convey emotion without overselling the song.
Beautiful song Jimmy.

Thanks for the listen and comment. I guess I used poetic license on the lyric. Thanks for pointing out the technical issue though!
 
Mark - thank you for stopping by and your kind words. 
 
Freddy - I appreciate the comment on not overselling the song. I tried not to. I remember producing/engineering in L.A. where I told many a young artist to let the lyrics do most of the work with emotion if the lyrics are good anyway. 
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and I am happy you liked it.

This is really good. Makes me feel good and blue at the same time. The bridge was effective too. Good playing too.

Thank you kakku! I get the good and blue comment. Much appreciated.

Paul Simon was a nerd and he's taken poetic license.  I guess it's acceptable. :D:D

Nice song, Jimmy.  Everything sounds really good, clear and defined.   I liked some of the unexpected chord changes you used, and the guitar fills scattered throughout are pretty sweet.   Oh.. and the short string part towards the end - nice touch.
 

Hi Steve. Thanks for the listen and nice words. It's really good to know it holds up. 
The bridge has some unexpected chords. As I played the piano part, I had a live mic and so I just mumbled some words and sounds for lyric placeholders and played the keys. This song fell out really fast but the lyrics and mix took months.
On one of the takes, I played that bridge and just let my fingers fall. I had some clams and cleaned those up. The result suprised me! I went with it. Do I know what I am doing? Sometimes. Those times I don't usually turn out the best ideas!
