I love the sentiment of this song. Rather than just doing something that will soon be forgotten, he suggests taking a chance and creating a new memory. Of course, in this song, it's a bit more complicated than that, because they already have old memories from a past together, as well as new obligations to others.
Think of all the times that we act conservatively in order to do the right thing. This song deals with the tension between not wanting to rock the boat and the desire to rock it at the risk of sinking it. Bon Jovi suggests rocking it - well, of course, he's a rock star!
