you really cant 'for sure know the meaning of this song unless you get a biblical base meaning of the name Raphael because obviously the name is significant since its used as the title and in one of the verses in this song.. taking a different approach since Raphael, in chritianity and other religions, was known for healing, then i think that the speaker was already hurt before she started this relationship with Raphael...so the beginning half describes the pain she was already feeling..she ends up dating a guy who is known for healing, perhaps a broken heart?. she cant help but feel the "warmth" of his presence and his soul. i think that she finds him to be perfect in everyway and she feeds into everything about him, "you know just how To take me in the swimming pool" and "Drowning in your watery thighs". she doubting the fact that, after all the pain she's suffered, this guy could be perfect when she says "Luscious eyed you a teenage player"...

idk i could be wrong but at least i have a different view on things..u may agree with some of it though..

btw, she's a lesbian so Raphael could be a girl since its an angel
