The perfect lost-love song. Every word is perfectly chosen. It's simple, direct, and incredibly heart-felt, especially the way he sings those lines at the end of each verse "I musta been mad, I never knew what I had". It breaks my heart every time I play it.
And the lines about mountains refer to breasts and the rivers that ran through every day, well you can use your imagination. The filthy old dog.
In some live versions he sings, "One thing's for sure, they're ain't no cure" as the last lines, which I prefer.
