Cover art for Kind Intentions lyrics by Dave Matthews Band

No, it's not a love song in that sense at all.

Quite clearly, this one's about Anne, seeing as the date of being written ranged anywhere from 1991 to 1993 (it's on an old demo).

This and its successors (2.5.94 soundcheck, 3.8.94's "Sister", and 4.6.94's "Me and Her") are all just really sad songs.

Kind Intentions documents an abusive relationship.
