[edit] Interpretation

Initially, it sounds like a tale of a woman whose children have grown, and who now questions whether to remain with her lover. However, given that Stevie Nicks has said that she wrote the song in Aspen, Colorado in 1974, when she was just 26, this interpretation seems implausible.

Why on earth is it implausible for a 26-year-old to write a song about someone whose children have grown? People don't always write songs about their immediate life situation. (Maybe I should add a note to Superman (R.E.M. song) pointing out that it isn't actually about the comic book character because interestingly it was written by a man who was not Superman.)
