Sara

Wait a minute baby...
Stay with me awhile
Said you'd give me light
But you never told be about the fire
Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter anymore
When you build your house
Call me home
And he was just like a great dark wing
Within the wings of a storm
I think I had met my match -- he was singing
And undoing the laces
Undoing the laces
Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter anymore
When you build your house
Call me home
Hold on
The night is coming and the starling flew for days
I'd stay home at night all the time
I'd go anywhere, anywhere
Ask me and I'm there because I care
Sara, you're the poet in my heart
Never change, never stop
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter what for
When you build your house
I'll come by
Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter anymore
When you build your house
Call me home
All I ever wanted
Was to know that you were dreaming
(There's a heartbeat
And it never really died)

This song has been up for discussion forever. The person building the house is most likely Don Henley, and Mick Fleetwood is most likely the "great dark wing". It is unclear who "Sara" is though, maybe Sara Recor Fleetwood or Stevie's alter-ego.
There is a 16 odd minute version that was never released and probably never will be, but I'm willing to bet that it holds the Sara secret.
Like how many licks it takes to get to the centre of a Tootsie Roll Pop... the world may never know...
