I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.
Last night, I had the time of my life
It's true
For last night, I made love for the very
First time
With you
I never knew love could be so sweet
It never made a difference to me
But ever since the day that you appeared
I'm telling you made the difference
Now love is so clear
And I can't stop (Can't stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
We diggin' on we
And Oh I can't stop (Can't Stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
Last night, you bought something special
Out of me
And for the first time
You made my dream a reality
I never though love was meant for me
For I was blind and could not see
You bought about a love that's so sincere
And I'm telling you, you've made the
Difference
Now love is so sincere
And I can't stop (Can't stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
We diggin' on we
And Oh I can't stop (Can't Stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
And I can't stop (Can't stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
We diggin' on we
And Oh I can't stop (Can't Stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
And I can't stop (Can't stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
We diggin' on we
And Oh I can't stop (Can't Stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
You've got me thinking that I need
Protection
Cause your love is so strong
I don't want to do wrong
Girl your love seems like it's true
Protection
You just give me a call
And I'll give you my all
And I can't stop (Can't stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
We diggin' on we
And Oh I can't stop (Can't Stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
It's true
For last night, I made love for the very
First time
With you
I never knew love could be so sweet
It never made a difference to me
But ever since the day that you appeared
I'm telling you made the difference
Now love is so clear
And I can't stop (Can't stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
We diggin' on we
And Oh I can't stop (Can't Stop)
How I feel
I'm diggin' on you
You diggin' on me
Last night, you bought something special
Out of me
And for the first time
You made my dream a reality
I never though love was meant for me
For I was blind and could not see
You bought about a love that's so sincere
And I'm telling you, you've made the

And I can't stop (Can't stop)
How I feel

Cranberries, The
"Zombie" is about the ethno-political conflict in Ireland. This is obvious if you know anything of the singer (Dolores O'Riordan)'s Irish heritage and understood the "1916" Easter Rising reference.
"Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken
-
Another mother's breaking
Heart is taking over"
Laments the Warrington bomb attacks in which two children were fatally injured on March 23rd, 1993. Twelve year old Tim Parry was taken off life support with permission from his mother after five days in the hospital, virtually braindead.
"But you see it's not me
It's not my family"
References how people who are not directly involved with the violence feel about it. They are "zombies" without sympathy who refuse to take action while others suffer.

Just listening for the 784,654th time....and it's just perfect in every way. Just incredible. The only reason it was remade was to scoop up a boatload of money from a more modern and accepting audience. But it is a completely different song than the other one that sounds slapped together in a few takes without a thought for the meaning.
This song captivates me still, after 50+ years. Takes me to the deep South and the poverty of some who lived thru truly hard times. And the powerful spirit of a poor young girl being abandoned to her future with only a red dress and her wits to keep her alive.
She not only stayed alive, she turned her hard beginnings around, became self sufficient, successful and someone with respect for herself. She didn't let the naysayers and judgers stop her. She's the one sitting in the drivers seat at the end.
So, not a song about a poor girl, but a song of hope and how you can rise up no matter how far down you started.
There is a huge difference between a singer who simply belts out a song that is on a page in front of them, and someone who can convey an entire experience with their voice. Telling not just a story with words, but taking you inside it and making you feel like you are there, with their interpretation.

This song is timeless, and nearly 20 years after its creation, still possesses the mystique it did the first time i heard it ~1994. To me, at first blush, all those years ago, it had some kind of homo-erotic allure. The line "so that the others may do" tells of something which must be done for others to follow suit. It felt like like some kind of roxy-glam-pop invitation to sexual liberation.
Upon further introspection I think the song may not have an intrinsic meaning, but simply represents a sort of "holding open the door" for people who otherwise might be affronted by this song/band's unusual style. I know, as a sort of armchair rock-historian, that there have been few bands so daring and so true to the sound that wanted to emerge from within, whether the creator wanted it or not. This band handled it with elegance and grace seldom, if ever, seen.
