Linda Ronstadt - Long Long Time Lyrics Meaning

It's about unrequited love which is so painful. I went through this. We were friends as with this song. I tried to change his mind, make him mine, and he fell over all kinds of girls he didn't know. He lead me on, we kissed, and I fell hard. Still think of him after 30 years. It is all true, I'm going to love, miss you and it's going to hurt for a long long time.
