Personally I've always interpreted the lyrics to be about someone who was very shy. She had a crush on someone and really wanted to be with that person, but was too self-conscious and hid every time she saw her crush. And then ended up feeling really bad every time her crush left, knowing she had failed once again to talk to him.
