Absolutely love this song, I think its about a reluctance to let go and experience emotional intimacy. She might've been round the block a few times and have a reputation for being a bit of a whore but she's empowered by the fact that her promiscuity isn't accompanied by a willingness to belong to someone emotionally. Agree with yummyindietunes though, there is a sad undertone like maybe she'd quite like all the emotional ties too.
