is a woman's reaction to just having had sex with a man she only just met, (one night stand), and she really likes him.....and is asking him......."well, now that we've had our moment's pleasure, and the sun is coming up, where is your love now.... was it just the talk of a man having sex, or was all your love talk something real that has lasted past the encounter, and into the new day"...
the lyrical clues that tell you this is a song about sex, first and foremost, are the way she describes their encounter as "a moment's pleasure" and "magic of your sighs", and the fact that it lasted all night, "as the night meets the morning star" ....as this is obviously not talking about the ferris wheel.
So, this was a very subversive song, in that its talking about a post -sexual encounter, from a woman's POV< and this was written in the early 60's, when this type behavior was "taboo"......And the worst part is....they candy coated this sex-song, by using a sweet girl group and a beat that made it seem very sweet and innocent.
