Can you describe the song - instruments played - any lyrics?

The song that comes to mind where Prince provides backing vocals is on 'Providence' by Ani DiFranco, which is featured on her album, 'To The Teeth', released in 1999.

Lyrics begin:

Who knew
At this party that
I would walk in and I would see you
I guess now
We could just get drunk
yeah, and that would be our excuse
You could slip
And outta nowhere
I could be there to catch your fall
And we could laugh at ourselves
And the writing that's on the wall

It's a narrow margin
Just room enough for regret
In the inch and a half between
'Hey, how ya been?'
and
'Can I kiss you yet?'
So we talk like nervous neighbors over a tall fence
True love
But for the lack of providence
.
