I have thought since I first heard this song sung by Nico that those last lines ("Please, don't confront with my failures. I have not forgotten them") were so profound, poignant, and world weary. I had no clue he wrote it when he was only 16. How do you get that perspective at only 16? WOW, talk about an old soul… Henley does a stellar job on this beautiful song! No shock there!
