Just listened to it yesterday! Got sidetracked sending “Hey, Paddy...” to an Irish friend.
But it seems more of a breakup song than a lonely song, a happy-to-be-without-you thing. Second favorite breakup song is Pat’s Yipes song “Last of the Angry Young Men”. Best is Peter Himmelman’s “Midnight Walk in the Ruins”!
i think of it as a happy to be lonely song...
