He defended it in a 1983 interview: “Just let me be cynical for a moment. First of all, it’s really not about waiting on a woman friend. It’s just about a friend; it doesn’t matter if it’s a man or a woman. I can see people saying, ‘Oh, we’re all much older now, Mick’s writing this much more compassionate stuff, must be about a real person. But that’s only in their perception of it.”\nhttps://americansongwriter.com/the-meaning-behind-waiting-on-a-friend-by-the-rolling-stones-and-why-it-took-almost-a-decade-to-complete/",
