Everyone is saying it's about the singer, which it sort of is, but he is the perfectly sane one in the relationship and the focus of the song is the girl and her "quirks".

She was built with a brain And some swagger. A little scream, little cry, Little laughter.

The girl is certainly special and the guy has very strong feelings for her, but she's very shy, timid and reserved to the point of it being mental.

This love up down. Please believe.

He is doing everything in his power to make her love him and realize that everything is going to be ok without coming on too strong.

Oh, it's not that you should care. I just wanted you to know.

He is trying to get her to open up to the world more and be more trusting of it's inhabitants.

Baby, it a wonderful news. It's not your fault

I feel like I could go on, but I gotta get back to work now :)
