I think this song could be about wanting to discover truth within oneself or with wanting to confess love for another person. Like Steve, I believe that the biographer interpretation is too staid and doesn't fit with the dreamy quality of the music. As beautiful ones pointed out, the lyric about the pill and the slow rhythm does make it seem as if the singer is on drugs, or at least relaxed from downing half a bottle of wine. Actually, the song seems very sexual. The singer's mind id obviously clouded with passion, for he finds it "hard to write the next line". There's an allusion to Marvin Gaye (does anyone else hear strains of "Sexual Healing"?) The "head over heels, toe to toe" could be recalling the act of dancing together or the thrill of the first intimate encounter with someone. Not to mention that the sighing in the chorus sounds semi-orgasmic. All these elements combine that sexual tension with the enamored satisfaction people feel when they're in love. What a beautiful effort.
Thanks, this kinda explains why I like this song so much. I must have known the meaning of thi song without knowing it. When I hear this song I always think of her.
