I'm not native speaking but I do interpret the "too Close" completely different to the other opinions. For me it sounds like "I am afraid I could love you too much, so I prefer to leave before I loose control"... ?!?! To love somebody might mean to give some of your own wishes up and to make compromises etc... so "too close to love" is simply too dangerous... and I think a lot of men (women too) are afraid of loosing control or making compromises... And before "he loves her completely" (he is very / too close to love) he better leaves her... Is there anyone who agrees??
I agree. The first time I heard the song I assumed 'too close to love you" means something like "I'm too close to you, and that is making it hard for me to love you" but after I read the lyrics I got your same interpretation. I think he's saying "i'm almost to the point of loving you, and it makes me scared, so i've got to leave you"
