I think this is about getting ahead of yourself in a new relationship, caught up in a swirl of feelings that aren't wholly reciprocated. The singer makes his willingness to jump right in abundantly clear, despite getting a sense that their object of desire might not share their enthusiasm.
I find this is a very universal, heartbreaking feeling. You like someone, just as they are, and you want them so badly but it's OK if they don't want you back in that same way right now. You don't wish them ill. You still think they're swell. You just desperately need to move on. (Unless they call, and then you'll drop everything - dignity and all - to be with them.)
@Ade I think you nailed it!
Right now I am in this exact situation that Damien sings about here and ironically I heard this song today and for the first time listened to the lyrics, which I could relate to so much atm. I came here to post what you wrote and you said it beautifully.

what your describing does not sound like a relationship to me.
