It's actually a very interesting song. It kind of describes a situation I know well. My current gf and I were the best of friends for about 2 months and we both wanted to date each other, but we were terrified we'd lose what friendship we had. That's pretty much what this song is all about. He doesn't want to fall in love because he's afraid to hurt the other person. He keeps denying it because he's so terrified of losing her, he'd rather not have her at all than be with her and treat her badly later.
