Obviously about a wonderful companion--Plant's dog. Haven't you had a dog that smiles when it sees you, no matter how long you've been gone, dances around your feet, runs along side you happy and carefree? This IS a love song about the best kind of love, UNCONDITIONAL, that only a great pet can provide. (never met a human that can provide unconditional love, pity) Too bad the song isn't about a wonderful blue-eyed girl. Merle refers to the markings on an animal--google it for loads of info.
