If it's about her, she was a naugty girl! But didn't Prince cheat on her with Mayte?

I thought it was about Mayte but maybe I am getting my time mixed up.
Anyway, it is a beautiful love song.

Love the song ...maybe it wasn't about any of them..maybe he wrote it long B4 those two women...do we really know?!?!

I heard that it was about Carmen because she allegedly had sex with Tony M.

So THIS is the reason why Prince broke up the original NPG. Tony M committed the ultimate sin: Messing with one of Prince's women.

Yup, that was me who said that in the other thread about this song... I've heard that for years but am not sure of the specific reason that caused him to write it.
