On the 7th of 10 tracks, we find probably the most autobiographical track in 'Lover, You Should've Come Over'. The song is Buckley describing his breakup from Rebecca Moore. Who happens to have been his muse and heavily involved in the New York Fluxus movement. The song is from Jeff's perspective that he feels all the little dependencies and actions he should have outgrown.
Jeff did record an alternate take on the song that has much darker lyrics. /'My broken bones smell the rain and they are aching to recover'/. The mainstream version of the song has a great sense of melody and a nice flow./'Parading in a wake of sad relations as our shoes fill up with water'/.
