A guy has been seeing a girl for a while or else actually in an official relationship with a girl. She keeps her distance as to protect herself from getting hurt. He really does care about her, and just wants for her to let him in. He can't get as close as he wants to be to her - not just physically, but even more importantly - emotionally. He has deep feelings for her but they can't be fully satisfied unless she opens up her heart to him all the way.
The lyrics
"I got close to your skin
While you were sleeping"
seem to suggest a yearning to merely get phyiscally close to her, but I think it has a deeper meaning as well. That meaning being that he can only get close to her when she's not aware. When he's open about his feelings towards her, it scares her and she distances herself more.
He can't force her to let him in, so he's waiting on her to open up to him on her own, and it's driving him crazy, and he wants to know, that as true and sincere as he is towards her now - when will she ever surrender her heart to him and just give in? He really cares about her but there's no sure way to make her see. She's got to make the decision to let him on on her own.
This is what I make of the song:
