Composition
According to Richey in a 1987 interview,[2] the lyrics were inspired by his own (at the time) secret admiration for Wynette, who was still recovering from the fallout of her recent divorce from George Jones. The pair became close friends and eventually married two years later.

gollark: Yes it does. Anyway, ICMP(v6) perhaps?

gollark: So you admit Macron has call/cc.
