Lyrics / Who’s Going to Love a Drifting Heart. (Analysis)

I like the time and effort you’ve put into this, it really shows in the tone of this piece.  ’kinder crazy’? as in ‘kinda crazy’?
The wonderful side of this piece is it will appeal to those who enjoy being untethered by place, face, or finance.  That alone makes this a really good piece because it has a unique audience it will resonate the most with, and yet is still broad enough to apply to people in certain stages of life, too.  
I would caution you on one thing, though.  Don’t use the title any more in the song than you have to, otherwise it can make the listener/reader feel like you ran out of steam or inspiration.  Half of this song is literally the line ‘Who’s going to love a drifting heart?’.  Use it just enough to be a strong theme, but modify parts of it so if you repeat it a lot, you repeat it in new ways.  The changes can be small ‘Who’s going to want a drifting heart?’  ’Who’s not going to leave a drifting heart?’  Etc.  
Overall, I like this quite a bit.  Nicely done, I hope to see it again.

thanks, i guess you have to be into folk and blue grass
music to understand the repeating of lines.
it go’s back to irish melodies, more recently by the likes
of willie nelson and townse van-zant.

HEy!
good work. i liked it even though i don’t know the reference you give on the comments for reviewer..
Perhaps i t would be even better to hear it with a melody, but i think it would make a nice little love song..

I didn’t like the repetiveness of whose going to love a drifting heart and you had a few grammarical errors, but if you fixed them would help alto in the interpetation of the song.

I do like it although I think it would be nice to hear it aloud. Just to see how well it really flows together. The verse she is wild as the wind and she kinder crazy I am not sure if that is the way you wanted it but it does not jive well with the rest. Other than that I like it.
