I love this song, but unfortunately it hits WAY too close to home. I think it's right that he can't open up because of fear, and that he's so afraid he can't show up for his own life: "There is nowhere else I would rather be, but I can't just be right here."
I don't really think that the problem is that he thinks she's too good...he's just afraid of any kind of intimacy and real feeling. He asks her to get past it, because he doesn't think he can change, but I don't think he really thinks she'll be able to get past it.
