i think they're trying to recreate a relationship after she's been in some sort of trouble (drugs? suicidalness? something like that?) that's made the relationship nearly impossible, and he's saying "it's not gonna be like it was. we made it through that and we're going to take it to the next level. it's not just about us as individuals anymore. we're going to be here for each other now." and i think the part about "if you ever do . . . i'll be the first to crucify you" is saying he cares so much that if she does something to destroy herself again he will be the first one to call her on it and will be the most angry about it.
whenever i used to ask my old boyfriend "what should i listen to going to sleep tonight?" he would always say this song. it's so funny because, though we were in a totally different situation than the characters in the song, i was totally all about taking it to the next level and being so in love with him, and he could never quite get there . . . (notice i said OLD boyfriend . . .) but he still really likes this song.
