I've always heard it as the "Let's just be friends" syndrome. He basically wants to be with here romantically and she only wants him as a platonic friend. Kind of sad and bittersweet. One of my fave songs of all time.

@hnybny "give me all you got without love" - she's after casual sex. At the time, boys were more often than not socialised into the old Marriage 1.0 model.
