not that i so much want them to have hooked up.. but Prince basically hooked up with every straight woman he worked with back in the early 80's... i would not be surprised if Stevie was yet another...

it seems awfully intimate for her to be in bed, while Prince is standing over her while she's asking for cough medicine.. dont cha think?

To me, I always thought it was about Stevie thinking back, to her younger days (not that she was that old then, but you know). About when her family moved around all the time, being a gypsy... And can't see her bright eyes - meaning can't see that inner child of herself anymore, the bright eyes she once had, "I can't find you", etc...... yadda yadda...

But I guess that was just how the song fit for me. That's what's so great about her music - it can be for everyone.

Matthew, that's it. Seems like there'd be songs written about him. A baby who loses his mother....very fairytale-ish in theme. The sad beginning part of a fairytale or something. I wonder if she ever sees Kim anymore, seeings as how we hear every now and then that she sees Matthew and stays in touch.

I just always figured that Kim remains facing freedom with a little fear.

I always thought the line "I still see your bright eyes..." was referencing, well, you know (and NO not every song is about him before someone comes on here and jumps all over what i've just said

) I thought it was more like, "hey Lindsey, you still see me (your Gypsy)"

Who knows what she actually meant, but this is one song that I read as about her & Robin and Kim & the baby.
I suppose there could be an additional meaning that she was dancing away from Lindsey while he wished for her, but I think the main meaning of that line is Robin. But who knows. Even if Stevie told us, how often has she changed the alleged truth behind a song.

Better watch it before the song police come along and arrest you for making such a comment

(though I agree, she has quite frequently done so).

That's true. Does she remember anymore?

The line about "she is dancing away from you now -she was just a wish" also always makes me think she was thinking back to her old self, her younger self, and then as the memories fade, her old self and that feeling are dancing away from her..... Again, probably just the spin it took in my mind. It's been my favorite of hers since it came out, like if you have a "life" song. Mine is Gypsy. Anyone else have a "life" song? Doesn't mean it's your favorite song, but it's one that always sort of sums up your life, or holds special to you and your life, always?

Folks, fill me in. Was Mick's wedding the next known time they were in the same place?

Might have been. Plus in 1989 they all saw him because he came into the studio with all of them to do some tracks.

No, widowhood. Not that it's a good thing by any means.
