Intro 3

[Intro]

This is a song that, uh, I wrote in England the first time I went there, and uh

Somebody had lent me a place to stay

And uh, it was a rock star, that I

I didn't really know, but somebody I knew, knew

And he had a house, and it wasn't his house either, it was just a rented

It was a really posh rented place

And I know it wasn't his place 'cause it had all kinds of ancient artifacts

And, and really beautifully lit cabinets, you know

So you know it wasn't Stephen Stills' house, it was just, you know

And uh, Stills was the first guy that I ever met that had, like, you know

So many guitars he needed like

A wholе separate truck to carry them around in, you know

And I thought it was

Just about thе most decadent thing I'd ever heard of, you know

But uh

The truth is I really didn't understand then about guitars

Anyway, whoever knew Stephen that arranged for me to stay there

Didn't know that he'd already lent it to this really

This great girl that I also knew from California

So I got into this beautiful house and I could stay in for free

With nothing much to do

And then there was this amazing girl in it

And this song, I wrote this song for her

It was just one of those magic times

I mean, it would, when you knew it was not gonna last forever

But it was, you know

It was gonna be like forever, actually, you know

For about a week
