Sounds kind of like a stalker to me, but I agree with Frau that Rammstein's songs are deeper than they seem.
I think that the man in the song has fallen in love with the woman but has convinced himself that he isn't good enough for her, leaving himself to watch her, dreaming and wishing that he could be with her.
