This song is about a person who loves someone else, but the love may/maynot be reciprocated... and the ensuing, conflicting thoughts are the theme.
I think the highlight of the song is "conflict" or "clash".
The person in love is "damned if they do" or "damned if they don't" because their attraction is so strong that they can't think of anything else... but on the other hand, rejection is a looming specter because the person cannot deal with the "rejection" either.
Can't believe this classic song has no entries!
Wow! Where do I start?
Can we say 'lover's dilemma'?
