    There is a 5 or something part podcast about Dolly Parton, and in one part her telling the story behind the song.

    It is a love song but not about being in love

      The podcast is titled Dolly Parton’s America. I highly recommend it. The song is platonic love instead of romantic or erotic love. Dolly is truly a national treasure.
