Lyric discussion by Polbean80 

I thought this song was pretty straight forward. I guess not, everyone's interpretations are all so different.

"I don't wanna be your friend, I just wanna be your lover" Well that seems pretty self-explanitory to me. He is in love with a married woman who is also in love with him. He is telling her to abandon her fears or her "house of cards" as he will his. She fears losing everything and her world falling down around her if she does give in to her feelings for him. So she pretends she doesn't want a deeper relationship that they are just "friends". Which he calls her out on by the whole "denial" part.

t the idiom "Your ears must be burning" is for when someone is talking about you, so the girl in the song he is singing about should know it's about her.

word, you hit it on the nose. Take it from someone whose been there
