Cover art for Rhiannon lyrics by Fleetwood Mac

I think this song is about someone that wants to love but has very little faith in love. Therefore, as some suggest "a drifter". She doesn't trust enough to stay. This is how the song speaks to me. Of course, I've been hurt & everytime I get close to someone; I have a tendancy to drift. Wouldn't you love to love her....if only she would let you.
