I think this song is about a guy, who loves this girl, who he is addressing in the song, and he's saying let's go back in time, to your best friend's house, to that party, where I messed up. I got too high, I made out with some girl Marmalade that I don't like like I love you. And him being tongue tied is a double entendre- he's tongue tied as in the literal sense, busy making out with that girl and caught in the act, but also tongue tied as in he doesn't know what to say to explain himself to her, the girl he loved then, the girl he still loves now, even after a meaningless makeout. I'm pulling some of this meaning from the music video, which plays backwards like Coldplay's 'The Scientist'. You see him eat a brownie as the last shot, and working backwards (as in forward, if that makes sense), he makes out with some girl, the girl's part comes in and she looks annoyed as she sings, he looks distressed as he washes his face in the bathroom to 'sober up' and while he sings 'I love you now' you can hear the desperation in his voice, and then he runs away from the party escaping 3 masked men that watch him and chase him. Maybe symbolic of his regret. Keep in mind the album title is Never Trust A Happy Song. That's my two cents.
