Analysis of Rendition
Yes, Neil,
I'm getting old too.
But no, I'm not searching
not like you do in this song,
not for a lacking heart of gold.
I already know where it is,
and how it has stranded.
I'm only looking for ways to be
the solid and trustworthy key
that makes this lonesome heart
gallop willingly again,
and lasting this time
with me.
