This song is from Flaming Pie which is one of my favorite McCartney albums, but I hadn't paid attention until I saw the video. At first I thought it was about Linda's death, being about a mother dying, and the song a consolation for the children. But turns out it is not. It's for another beatle's wife. Maureen Starkey, Ringo's ex-wife, which died of leukemia. Great song.
