It's found on the Tea for the Tillerman Album, my dad used to play it for me all the time. I'm just wondering if anyone knows or how others interpret it.

"Wild World" found the singer being dumped by a girl, but making the novel suggestion that she should stay with him because she was incapable of handling things without him. "Sad Lisa" might have been about the same girl after she tried and failed to make her way; now, she seemed depressed to the point of psychosis. The rest of the album veered between two themes: the conflict between the young and the old, and religion as an answer to life's questions.

Many years of listening to this song, and getting to know Cat Stevens through his music. Without asking him personally, I say it was conflict within himself, remember, no one could see her. only he could help her, and she only trusted him. Cat Stevens at that time was in 2 minds about his destiny. With out knowing, I d say Cat Stevens used the art of Leonardo DaVinci, Mona Lisa to convey his story.
