It's about giving your heart to someone and learning to know and love them, and not knowing if they'll do the same.

I love this song. It shows off her voice so well, and she really put her heart into it.. it's beautiful.

Also I'm pretty sure it's "the thunder before the lightning and the breath before the phrase" to fill in the question marks =)

I'd have to add that a garden in literature is often the women's "private garden". Clutching "MY" coffee refers to HER coffee, which is brown in color. This is a deeply sensual and poetically beautiful song. She also does a double meaning when she talks about waiting for the ring. The double here is the wedding ring women wait for. It is a happy song about being truly in love, very deeply in love. And it's about a woman letting someone into her heart and into her body.
