At first I thought this was kind of obscure and maybe too much to read meaning, but I think this could be about Nico's pregnancy to Alain Delon.
"Your winding winds did sow, all that is my own" could refer to him sewing the seed as in impregnating her, giving her this son, which is all she has. Although she wasn't a good mother, Nico was very close to Ari, especially around this time I believe.
I also think it could be about sex, because of her sitting upon her soul, on her bed and that this man's ways have led her to bleed. Which could be reffering to a loss of innocence, virginity and all that. I'm no one hundred percent sure on this, but since nobody else has commented on this wonderful song I may as well give my insight.
@JJKelsall thank you from some eleven years in the future. I agree this is a wonderful song. There is a sense of resignation that Nico conveys I think both with the lyric and her delivery. That lends credence, I think, to your interpretation.
