besides, most of the best love songs are just a little bit codependent

this is a rare POV for stevie to take, and i like it. she's not playing wounded, and she's not singing about herself. it's a nice change.
that's a very interesting point! i just can't get over that falsetto. i really hope people take more notice of this overlooked gem.
