this song is totally about his ex-wife sara, and how he has never really gotten over her. there are direct connections to "sad eyed lady of the lowlands" (...should i leave them by your gate...or sad eyed lady should i wait?"
also...'sara": "sara, oh sara, whatever made you want to chang your mind?"
"can't wait": can't wait, wait for you to change your mind" and 'i'm breathing hard..standing at the gate....don't know how much longer i can wait."
also...."i'm trying to recover the sweet love that we knew." and "oh honey..after all these years you're still the one".
i think after all these years he is still madly in love with sara and will go to his grave loving her! sigh!!!!
@day5628 I always assumed this was about some later girl, but your parallels seem pretty ept. If it was Sara, wow. "After all these years, you're still the one."
