As far as meaning....I think it's just an unreciprocal sort of love. The speaker having to ask the other person to "Strip for me as I've stripped for you" speaks volumes when coupled with the "we've got nothing" bit, but I may be ignoring the bigger picture. People say Davey's lyrics are so deep, but I can't help but figure it's just about sex or if you must have a deep meaning, unrequited love.
