Here's what the song says to me:

The maine protaganist (character) keeps going to clubs but he has no idea why because as soon as he arrives he is at a loss for what to do and thusly feels awkward ("I feel awkward as I should"). He stays the entire night ("I hold out for one more drink") and prolongs that awkward feeling. He often notices a woman that he is interested in talking with but due to the awkward feeling, he's never made a move (perhaps the same woman every time because she's a regular at the club in question?). She never really notices him and just walks right past him each time ("If your body matches what your eyes can do, youd probably move right through me on my way to you"). Apparently she's so beautifull that she "paralyzes" him eache time he sees her.

He's probably just one of those guys who has issues taking to women although he's a really nice/sweet guy once you get to know him, you know the kind I mean...
