The intro had set me up to expect a classic Eagles sound but you played me well.
The lyric/narrative is as on point as Old Man or Cat's in the Cradle though the verse/bridge before the final chorus throws a curve ball of sorts. I know that's your wheel house but I'd consider writing a slight alternative to that bit for a more secular performer.
Everything about the song is fabulous TBness.
You're a wonder.
