this song is about a man that obsesses over someone he only knows online. he has read her blogs, her secrets... he has seen her pictures. but he has never actually met her. his friends don't think she would even agree to meet him in real life. they're laughing at his situation, and he realizes it.
several references to chat or instant message style non-verbal communication, such as smiling between asterisks (smiles) and leaving cats eyes after the poems he sends to her (=^..^=) reinforce the idea that this relationship exists only on the internet.
he would clearly like to know his obsession in real life as well as online. probably in response to his friends' opinion that she wouldn't ever consent to meet outside of the internet, he begs her to choose a public place to meet.
she spends most of her time inside (most likely on the computer). it's probably been a while since she's had someone to love. her crying leaves mascara streaks down her cheeks. she's not sure this will work out either. but she crosses her fingers and hopes.
she realizes that this can never be, but she likes to wish.
but he doesn't understand... he thinks it's going to work out so he's making plans.
