I don't think she's talking about Joe or Lindsey there. She says things were always volatile with Lindsey and they were with Joe too. Both of these men went on to forge long lasting relationships, but with women who were different from them and different from Stevie. I think Stevie is saying maybe that would have been the key for her as well.

So, I think she's talking about Carl the nebbish accountant who really loved her, but whom she just wasn't that into. Maybe she realizes that that's who could have brought her the most happiness. Not the heart-soaring highs and lows, rage and desire, but the day in and day out contentment. The nurturing, "normal" family life. He could have steadied out her rock star urges and with him and his horn-rimmed glasses she could have found peace and balance. But it was never to be.
