I think the very first stanza (?) is just a plain "we are going our seperate ways." Could be due to one of them cheating or maybe having to leave (for college or work) and the other questions who the other will be with when not with them type of issue. That's why he asks to keep him updated. Let him know what's going on and if there is someone else. He then talks about meeting someone else, but all he sees is her. Then he talks about being in their teens and how it wasn't too great of a relationship. Then a reminder that the girl he might've met just reminds him of her. I think by crash, I feel he is saying just let go and fall in love again with me. Crash is used almost dramatically because obviously crash usually means a strong impact between two opposing forces so he wants her to crash into whatever is holding her back and he'll be there to hold her after the impact because this is their second chance to make things right. Then states how time has passed, they've grown up and changed, but now nothing can stop them from being together.
SO I LOVE THIS STANZA:
"And I know,
I've said this all before,
but opposites attract.
We try and run away,
but end up running back." So powerful in my opinion. He is basically saying I know I said we are meant for eachother but it is indeed true. That even though they've tried leaving it behind they come back to it. And then in come the Crash portion of the song. Basically I feel this is a song about true love. They met in their teens, it didn't work out so well due to whatever reasons, and now later on in life they are given a second chance and he is saying let's just do this and to not hesistate.
BTW love the refrence to "Always Atrract" because I loved that song and it's cute he mentioned it. It's like paying tribute to their first album:]
