I think I might have totally missed the point with this song, but I got this idea in my head and now it's all I can hear.

To me it seems as if the "fireworks in the day" is masterbation, and he's talking about man needing a sexual partner to be complete, rather than playing with yourself. I guess maybe this is a rather crude interpretation, but once you apply it to the lyrics they do all fall into place.

The last section is describing the true fireworks which his partner ignites when they make love.

Can someone either confirm this, or give me an alternative.
