"Herbie and Larry Klein would like to thank Wayne, Dave, Vinnie and Lionel for their patience and commitment to going deep beneath the words." -- HH

And a deep dive it is.

Even without a singer, you can feel Joni's words:

Give me some time
I feel like I'm losing mine
Out here on this horizon line
With the earth spinning
And the sky forever rushing
No one knows
They can never get that close
Guesses at most
