While I am not trying to over-sexualize everything, I have always taken this song to be about a lady loosing her virginity, as he says "You can lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence" but that may be waaaaaaaaaaay off base and, yes Bruce Hornsby is awesome! But then again I am a piano geek!
