David Atkatz"I believe there is some disparity as to who that song was written about. Joan Baez has claimed it was written about her, while others maintain it was written with one of Dylan's other former lovers in mind (either Suze Rotolo or Sara Dylan--I forget). I don't recall ever reading Dylan's take on the subject. Knowing him, he likely remains ambiguous!"
One of the lines in Dylan's later song "Sara" is
"Staying up all night at the Chelsea Hotel
Writing Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands for you."
