I agree with drdoe. However, I think the line "'til you dropped another" possibly refers to ecstasy or some other drug. I feel that the song is about love and drugs as the title and lyric "Higher Than the Stars" alludes to. Perhaps, he doesn't really think he loves her unless he's on drinking and on drugs. He's probably in a very confused state from the chemicals.
