From Terry Clements in the Lead By Ben Elder
http://www.corfid.com/gl/press/press50.htm

...After three decades of working with Lightfoot, Clements says his job is not that complicated. "If Gord has specific idea, he'll tell me. Otherwise, it's, 'Come up with something,'" he explains, The ideas can flow in either direction, and "In My Fashion" from Waiting For You [sic]was built on a Terry Clements idea. "That was one of my riffs," he recalls. "Gordon said, 'Hey, can I use that I said, 'Sure,' and we ended up building that song around that riff."...

--Not sure about the reference--it actually might refer to the riff in "Waiting For You" itself.
