This is a top notch composition, arrangement and production. It has a Gordon Lightfoot vibe about it to me. I saw him in Chicago many years ago, just Gordon along with a guy on another acoustic guitar. This song was right in the wheelhouse of what they were doing.

Regarding suggestions, not many come to mind, this is great the way you have it now.

You may want to experiment a bit with getting that flowing guitar real life/live sound you feel about the song.

The only other thought that occurred to me listening is the trivial idea that I would change the title and lyric line from "The girl with the look in her eye" to "The girl with 'that' look in her eye because it places a more direct and personal emphasis on the look that she's giving. Trivial and not really a suggestion as much as a passing thought....

Another personal choice I would do would be to place just a touch more reverb effect on your vocal. That's a personal choice only as well.

Enjoyed this one a lot.
