I agree with Ziggymetstardust. And I would add that I think it's a song Tim Buckley wrote about his marriage with Mary Guibert, whom he was married to once (they had a son named Jeff Buckley). Its only my interpretation, but the lyrics correspond to the reasons apparently why their marriage failed. I read that they married too young and for bad reasons (They thought that she was pregnant, and it turned that she wasn't). At the beginning they were really in love, but their young age, and the precipitation of the events following this suspicion of pregnancy made them move a step prematurely. Little by little, their behaviour changed both and Tim seemed to feel pressure from her. And Tim thirsted for adventure, was admired by a lot of beautiful ladies (he started his career), and maybe didn't want of a quiet little married life.
@difolk No it's not. Tim called his second wife Judy his 'cross-eyed flamingo'. and the tango refers to his song 'Come here woman', which was about meeting Judy.
