I think it's "I was a peeping tom on that scene". I think it's a way to say he semi-stalked this tomlady but not in a too-perverted way.
I'd wager that the verses about general ennui connect to the chorus by just saying that when nothing else gives you real meaning, love/a connection with another person can be the thing that excites you and shows you the way.
just seems like a sweet little song that wears its heart on its sleeve. the tomboy detail makes the song juvenile and coy, and the peeping tom bit makes it devilish and somehow sweeter.
