Lyrics
Are you gonna stay with me or leave through the backdoor?
Questioning whether the person will stay or leave discreetly.
You look like you might like the band whose CD I have on
Observing the person's appearance and suggesting they might like a specific music band.
Your jeans are working 'cause they'll get you on top
Complimenting the effect of the person's jeans, hinting at their attractiveness.
That smile tells me that you came from above
Interpreting the person's smile as angelic or divine in origin.
Nothing will keep you 'round yet
Expressing uncertainty about what will make the person stay.
I know you will stay and watch the sunset
Expectation that the person will stay and enjoy a romantic moment watching the sunset.
Let's believe that for one moment
Suggesting a shared belief in the possibility of a fleeting perfect moment.
Nothing will hurt no more
Hope that nothing will cause emotional pain.
Why are you so sweaty? Is it also hot for you?
Questioning the person's physical discomfort, possibly due to the heat.
Too hot for me to handle so I guess it's true
Expressing personal difficulty in handling the perceived heat.
You look so colorful but your skin's whiter than snow
Contrasting the person's colorful appearance with their pale skin.
You look like you just escaped from an Andy Warhol show
Comparing the person's look to something distinctive, such as an Andy Warhol art show.
Nothing will keep you 'round yet
Reiteration of uncertainty about what will make the person stay.
I know you will stay and watch the sunset
Repeating the expectation that the person will enjoy the sunset together.
Let's believe that for one moment
Reaffirmation of the shared belief in a perfect moment.
Nothing will hurt no more
Reiteration of hope that nothing will cause emotional pain.
Nothing will keep you 'round yet
Continued uncertainty about what will make the person stay.
I know you will stay and watch the sunset
Repeating the expectation of enjoying the sunset together.
Let's believe that for one moment
Reaffirmation of the shared belief in a perfect moment.
Nothing will hurt no more
Reiteration of hope that nothing will cause emotional pain.
