And all I am is a man
I want the world in my hands
I hate the beach
But I stand in California with my toes in the sand
Use the sleeves of my sweater
Let's have an adventure
Head in the clouds but my gravity centered
Touch my neck and I'll touch yours
You in those little high waisted shorts, oh

Oh, she knows what I think about
And what I think about
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirt, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Nothing that I wouldn't wanna tell you about, no
'Cause it's too cold
For you here
And now, so let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

And if I may just take your breath away
I don't mind if there's not much to say
Sometimes the silence guides a mind
To move to a place so far away
The goosebumps start to raise
The minute that my left hand meets your waist
And then I watch your face
Put my finger on your tongue 'cause you love to taste, yeah
These hearts adore, everyone the other beats hardest for
Inside this place is warm
Outside it starts to pour

Coming down
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirt, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Nothing that I wouldn't wanna tell you about, no, no, no
'Cause it's too cold
For you here
And now, so let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

'Cause it's too cold
For you here
And now, so let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

Whoa, whoa, whoa

Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa

'Cause it's too cold
For you here
And now, so let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

It's too cold
For you here
And now, let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

And it's too cold, it's too cold
The holes of my sweater

    @tinabinga Agree with your interpretation, but let me embellish by including my own thoughts.

    IMO, this is a very dark, very typical "masculine" song. The singer of the song is a MAN, he wants to conquer the world and he does not have much thought for anything else. But he "adores" this woman who his "heart beats hardest for", and although he can't offer her his "sweater" (metaphor for his heart), he wants her to put her hands in his sleeves (a brief affair, or a tryst).

    "Let's have an adventure; head in the clouds, but my gravity's centered" – means he wants to have an affair/relationship with this woman, and he's high off their relationship, but still he is grounded enough to not let their relationship sway him from his goals: to conquer the world.

    The chorus presses on the fact that he sees their relationship as a sexual thing. They are both driven by sex – "She knows what I think about, and what I think about's 'one love, two mouths, one love, one house, no shirt, no blouse, just us". The next line confirms that he is emotionally cold, and does not want to talk about anything personal: "You'll find out nothing that I really wanna tell you about"

    The next verse also highlights their strictly sexual relationship: "If I may just take your breath away, I don't mind if there's not much to say, sometimes the silence guides our minds, so move to a place so far away" And the next lines, as they say it, is history.

    "Inside this place is warm, outside it starts to pour" I believe illustrates the dark, gloomy, rainy, nature of this song. – The first line refers to how happy he feels with the woman in the house (where they are having sex), but outside it's raining.
