I generally think that this song is great and beautiful and quite unique for what it is. And while the Cine's comments says that the song is full of worse less metaphors I don't think so. The song is more than just cleverest metaphors that Katie could come up with. The song to me is explaining that she has need to need or what one person in particular. And it seems that she uses the metaphors as a why of says that no matter what form of 'life' their in ie. him being a house and she buying the house to live in or she being the dusty trail he needs to ride his horse on as a cowboy, that they'll always have this need for each other. It also seems that his person that she's talking about (or singing too) seem they met time and time again which instead of destroying her belief in fate it reassures her belief in fate something which she seems to be unsure of.
I also have to disagree with Sapphire's comment about being worried about the "If you were a piece of wood I'd nail you to the floor" - to me it shows Kate's funny side and just how clever of song write she is. Plus the line can be taken out of text and thought of as something sexual or just thought of as just another line. Though I like think of the line out of text as its much more funnier.
