The song under the skin is more an intimate message to Stevie that he understands her pain and is there for her. My feeling when I first heard the song was that it was about Stevie and was a mature reflection on their relationship as it had turned out and how Stevie's life had ultimately not turned out as she would have liked.
Both songs are really rather sad.

i think so too. in some ways i think he's saying "i won't be home tonight" to both his wife & stevie. to his wife, he needs time to think (& he did say that on the show "just leave me alone & let me work this out") & to stevie because possibly he also considered her his home because they go back so far & shared the same dreams early on. so the "all our dreams our done" makes more sense. i always loved the song but it seemed out of place in parts until now. i thought to tell his wife that all their dreams were done was defeatist or that he was throwing in the towel. now it makes more sense. & it really is sad.
