One thing I've always liked about this song is the first part of the first verse:
"The roads are wrapped around your waist
They lead me place to place
I take trips from hip to hip
In fact I've made a career out of it"
The way I always interpreted this is like... The roads are wrapped around her waist, basically meaning that his world revolves around her; anywhere he goes, she's at its core. He's made a career out of this by writing about her in sex songs and love songs.
Also... I love how the chorus contradicts itself... He needs her to cry, but it breaks his heart to see it.
