Others on here have written that this song is all about "Friendship." A guy having this girl as a friend, and then he realizes he wants her to be his "Steady Girlfriend." I respectfully disagree. I feel that the relationship is further along than that. I feel that the guy is already dating the girl for awhile, but then he realizes that what he really wants is TO MARRY THIS GIRL!. That's what I think these lyrics mean:: "It's time to bring this ship into the shore, and throw away the oars FOREVER!"
