this song is about leaving the rest of the world behind you to focus on the one person you truly care about. it's "a stitch in time"; Billy is saying here that he is completely in the moment with his loved one, without regard to time or obligations. "don't say you want too much; they'll say you've had enough." believe that life can be beautiful, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. the song does take a bit of a detour from this optimistic image: "there's somewhere i've just gotta be." he recognizes that this cannot last forever, because sooner or later the stitch in time will end, and they will have to return to their lives. "you're everywhere at once, and you can't catch me; watch out". Billy is saying that he is a free spirit, and he cannot be contained. basically, it is about a relationship in which they love being together, but still have certain obligations and duties to fulfill elsewhere.
cheers to the great Corgan. another gorgeous work of art.
