In my opinion it's about trust issues with his new girlfriend because of what happened with his ex.
Him and his new girlfriend keep having arguements. He knows he causes them but it's because he's "got memories" of what happened in his last relationship, which now means he doesn't trust his new girlfriend to stay faithful.
She's good with his family and friends. He wants to let her into his emotions but he's scared of what happened last time. "You aint nothing like the girl I used to know" he knows she's not like his ex so he should trust her.
He wants to stop fighting and be happy, he hopes she still wants him as much as he wants her. He's trying and he knows its not a good enough excuse that he was hurt and hasn't gotten over it.
"Why can't I get it right? Just can't let it go
I opened up, she let me down, I won't feel that no more
I got memories, this is crazy
She ain't nothin' like the girl I used to know" he doesn't know how to fix himself.
"Don't mean to take it out on you, baby, but I can't help it
'Cause my heart is in the same ol' condition that baby left it
And I, I apologize for makin' you cry
Look me in my eye and promise you won't do me the same" he hates what he's doing to her and he asks her to try not to do something to make him cry.
"I don't wanna be stuck up in this cold, cold world
Don't wanna mess this up, better keep your eye on me, girl"
He doesn't wanna be unable to open up.
he fears he might cheat on her so he asks her to make sure he doesn't.
