Steve Gorman shared great insight on this song in his 2019 memoir, pages 338-339:
I remember reading (the) lyrics in the studio. I was moved, and I told (Chris Robinson) I was really surprised he had expressed that.
He said, "Yeah, I'm just picturing someone like, you know, my dad. Sitting there thinking, '****, I blew it!'"
I said, "Your dad? What are you talking about? You're writing this to yourself."
He looked at the lyrics again, thought about it for a few seconds, and said, "Oh yeah ... maybe."
