I love this song, especially the way he performs it solo. A lot of the SBS songs are just fun-loving and free-spiritted, and this one especially. This album, culminating is the closing track, is definately about the ups and downs of relationships, both romantic and otherwise, including the narrators relationship with himself. Walken, however, is pretty obvious. He's in love, and he can't help it--he's walken around and can't help but sing about his girl. He runs home just to see her. This song might be the first time the narrator realized he's in love--'the more I think about it the more I know it's true'--or possibly when he decides to ask for her hand in marriage. Hell, it could just be Tweedy saying 'man I love my wife'. Either way, a great song and great album by a great band.
