Lyric discussion by Jesdisciple 

That wasn't supposed to be submitted so early...

He used to have a lady, but she left. Is the lady being addressed that one or a new one? I guess she's the new one, but he could be fantasizing over the former as some other writers have done.

If this is addressed to his former lady, isn't this lyric a bit rude? He addresses her as she dances, "Don't be thinkin' that I don't want you 'Cause maybe I do." Or does he address her - maybe he only considers it?

If this isn't addressed to his former lady, what does the former have to do with the more recent? Why mention her?

Not to mention the temperature idioms.

I think he's mentioning his former girl throughout the song. He sees her dancing. He's playing it cool, acting like he's alright without her, but he really wants her back. That's my interpretation.
