I have spent days listening to the Different Class CD over the years and most of the songs at one point or another have been my favourite. This one maybe more than most.
I don't think her lover has left, I think the "something beautiful" that's left town is more abstract and refers to what they used to have.
But then at other times I also thought that she might be a prostitute...?
Maybe sometimes we think to much, was it Freud who said sometimes a pencil is just a pencil?
Its a great song, Cocker writes some of the best lyrics around.
