There’s also another one of Tom’s clever lyrical twists in this one, in that first verse, when he sings “I must be looking over something” rather than “overlooking something”. A simple little bit of wordplay that subtly changes the impact of the line and changes the cadence of how it bounces along. Overall though, it’s definitely a hopeful, positive song and resolves in the bridge with the line “You have pulled me from this river of loneliness”If you want to listen to the track before we dig in, check out the official video: https://youtu.be/IljIy5lP0R4 You can check out the live performance on the French show Houba Houba here: https://youtu.be/_cwgzXXwTyo And finally, I found an immaculate lockdown cover by The Refugees, a Tom Petty tribute from the Bay Area.
