Don't seek deep spiritual truth from that song. It is just a simple love song, no more, no less. Does that make it bad? No.

I like their other songs a lot better, though. That song does not really reflect what the band's music is like.

as far as an exact interpretation i couldn;t help. But the over all interpretation is obviously about kissing the one you love and spending a magical time together. Just because they are Christian doesn't mean they can't sing about relational issues. It's apart of life

I think that the lyrics could possibly be interpreted using song of songs (solomon) where most of it is about the relationship between the bride and her lover.... it is believed and i believe that we are the bride and that Jesus is the lover...

Its not a definative answer but it is an answer none the less....
