This is one of those songs that I could see myself dedicating to a girlfriend or wife in the future on her favorite radio station. Being the shy and quiet type, I can relate to Delp's lyrics in this song. It has a pretty straightforward meaning; this girl (let's call her Amanda) doesn't even have to say anything around (let's call him David) - her mere presence is capable of bringing out the best of David and triggering a feeling he's never felt before deep within his heart. Though David struggles with his emotions, it just goes to show that, no matter how much of a "lady's man" reputation that's burdened on your shoulders, there will always be that one girl who can bring you to your knees.
