I think "she wears white six days a week" could mean she is a Catholic school girl (white dress shirt), and the sixth day would be Sunday mass. OR that she is a private school girl with a uniform and she goes to church on Sunday.
But she isn't an "easy" or promiscuous girl at all. So you're lucky if she lets you in.
I think this song may be talking about the allure of a girl like that who, from a public school perspective, if the holy grail, this mysterious type of girl who doesn't go to the same school as you. Sounds funny, but us guys are weird little dudes in high school (not that this changes as we get older...).
I think "she was just one of those girls" doesn't mean to belittle her or reduce her to the same as any girl. I think the lyrics means "She was just...(pause)...one of those girls..." meaning the type of girl you don't come across often. She changes your life, makes you rethink things. After her he quit girls. How could anyone else compare? Also: maybe he quit "girls" because he realized she was a woman. She matured him.
So in this interpretation the band really respects this young woman, looks back at her in awe. There are such few lyrics, so maybe we're not meant to really know the meaning of each line. Maybe the band is just snapshotting a memory or a moment in time, because too many words would just fail to convey the feeling.
I like your interpretation of "She was just... (pause) one of those girls". I always thought of it as a negative thing but this makes much more sense. I also agree with your lack of lyrics idea, don't want to ruin the feeling with too many words. I think the "she wears white" thing may be a metaphor though, rather than literal. Perhaps it's a metaphor for being angelic (like your catholic school girl idea) and perfect six days a week, and the seventh day is the day she gets to be free. Party do what ever she likes. "If...

"If you're lucky" implies she's something really special, something that is just like, wow, fuck, how even...? Definite teenage love brains here. Listened to this shit religiously through academy (our equivalent of high school) and still do. Don't go a day without screaming it in my head.
