Seems pretty straightforward to me- Although he has carnal thoughts, he earnestly wants to be faithful and monogamous. Pretty evident in the line...
"If I could just purge all the urges that I have and keep them for you"
He's not above admitting that he does have urges, The title of the track says it all alluding to the "wandering eye" that people in relationships often have. Don't lie, you women have it too! I'm certain being away from your loved one (paired with the absence of physical contact) for long periods of time would add to such feelings.
I think that as the song develops he is differentiating his wants from his needs. Early he states that he wants to do what his body wants to. Yet he states later he wants to show his girl that he NEEDS her. While we may want a wide array of things, it is important to seperate that from what you need. In the end it seems to me that he came to a resolution and started using his mind and hands to do what he earnestly wanted all along....That resolution goes above and beyond physical gratification.
