The Gift Lyrics

I agree a lot with Lorna about this song's meaning. I think that it is about a one night stand sort of thing, but the singer wants more than that: a relationship. He loves this person, but she probably only wanted him for sex and now wants to move on. He want her completely, to know who she is, her past, her secrets.
