I can give it all on the first date
I don't have to exist outside this place
And dear know that I can change
But if stars, shouldn't shine by the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cause we can give it time, so much time
With me
And I can draw the line on the first date
I'll let you cross it
Let you take every line I've got
When the time gets late
But if stars, shouldn't shine
By the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cause we can give it time
So much time
With me
If you want me
Let me know
Where do you wanna go
No need for talking
I already know
If you want me
Why go
If you want me
Let me know
Where do you wanna go
No need for talking
I already know
If you want me
Why go
I can give it all on the first date
I don't have to exist outside this place
And dear know that I can change
But if stars, shouldn't shine
By the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cause we can give it time, so much time
With me
But if stars, shouldn't shine
By the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cause we can give it time
So much time, with me
I don't have to exist outside this place
And dear know that I can change
But if stars, shouldn't shine by the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cause we can give it time, so much time
With me
And I can draw the line on the first date
I'll let you cross it
Let you take every line I've got
When the time gets late
But if stars, shouldn't shine
By the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cause we can give it time
So much time
With me
If you want me
Let me know
Where do you wanna go
No need for talking
I already know
If you want me
Why go
If you want me
Let me know
Where do you wanna go
No need for talking
I already know
If you want me
Why go
I can give it all on the first date
I don't have to exist outside this place
And dear know that I can change
But if stars, shouldn't shine
By the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cause we can give it time, so much time
With me
But if stars, shouldn't shine
By the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cause we can give it time
So much time, with me

As soon as I heard this song, I related to it.
I read it as getting physical with someone the first time you go out with them, and not caring OR expecting it to go anywhere after that. But being open to the possibility.
If things do progress, "we can give it so much time," even if "stars shouldn't shine by the very first time." From the girls' perspective, she draws these "lines" that she'll let him cross (she doesn't want to give it up and sleep with him in theory, but when it gets down to it she gives it up). She understands that it might not go anywhere after that, but they have time to see if there is a possibility.
Something like that, anyway. I like Rasio's idea of this song as a statement of the band, as well.
bingo. that's it, you're totally right with all you say. even that Rasio's idea is nice and witty as well :) I agree to all of it!
