I think its about him wanting to be with someone so bad he'll let her use him and want to be around her even though she's clearly only interested in sex and he's saying he'll let her stay if she wants to. he realizes she doesn't care if he's around, i.e.:
"So if you say you wanna stay
the night, then feel free
Or if you say wanna take the
flight to feel me
But if you change your mind
and go away
then come what may
But know that I'll be by your side."
he knows he should just go get over her but his feelings he's developed for her are making him stick around:
"Hey I wanna go home
Don't wanna be here alone
Yeah, I really can't stay
Oh I really ought to go
No, I really can't stay
Oh this pain in my head
No, it wont go away
Oh I really ought to go
Got to find my own way
But this fear and this dread
says that I must obey"
the development for feelings for her is also referenced here:
"Fuck your pain away
I saw in you, I fell on through
to devotion"
