O.K.
So everything here is pretty much true...only it is in bits and pieces
This girl from America was really obsessed with Neil and flew to Te Awamutu to meet him...
She met him one night after a gig when he was sick and nursing headache. She sat down next to him at the bar and started telling him the many woes of her life 'her parents are divorced/her friends committed suicide'.
Neil realised that he was talking to a crazy and eventually managed to pass off to a friend of his (I forget the name now) who was a poet and left her with him.
I read an interview with him a few years ago where he discussed this...The lyrics do appear to be reffering to this story
