Here's the video:

Thanks for the link, but as I said...I know the speech very well. And even as I read your transcript of it, I see nothing in it alluding to Stevie. It's just your interpretation of his words.

^^ THAT is what I think he meant. That would be my interpretation.

I find his songs to be pretty to the point. I mean each line would stab me in the heart, and it makes her, Kristin, look stupid. I really dislike it when women allow that behavior and look the other way...acting, real, half/half doesn't really matter. So go figure...but the baby being alluded to as a barricade...and DR, it's not being together, it's just following the rules...so fatalistic, kinda takes some of the shine off it all...maybe that's why they didn't't play it..I'm sorry...I think I'm rambling.
Well, I guess Kristen must just be more secure in herself and her husband than you are. Not everyone looks for drama in their lives


Kristen is stupid?? That is extremely presumptuous!! You don't know any of these people!! She's stupid, and yet she's got a successful business of her own, is married to a man that may other women on this earth would LOVE to be married to, has three happy, beautiful kids...and we're here on a chat forum LOL!! but really?? We should all be so stupid.

see my post above, plus look at that whole thread i linked to for different interpretations. there are some really good ones there, once a person takes off S+L blinders.
Yep Obviously Lindsey and Stevie have a complicated relationship, blah blah blah, but that hardly means every word written by either one is about the other. As you stated elsewhere, some of their songs have multiple, or purposely ambiguous meanings. Others, not so much.
