You're an accident waiting to happen...
She has obviously hurt him in the past by leaving him and he knows she will do it again
You tell me things I know you're not supposed to, then you leave me just out of reach...
She confides in him, loves him, but won't commit to him
Who's gonna ride your wild horses...
Who is going to be that guy that sweeps her off her feet, the guy she would never leave?
The deeper I spin, the hunter will sin for your ivory skin...
He is in over his head and is willing to "sin" (cheat on his spouse???) just to be with her
Took a drive in the dirty rain...the river was laughing at you and me...
He snuck away to be with her and is metaphorically being mocked by the river that they can't keep away from each other yet aren't together
Heaven's white rose, the doors you open, I just can't close...
Clearly he looks at her like an angel and when she comes looking for him, he just cannot say no to her
Don't turn around, don't turn around your gypsy heart...
He's asking her to stop coming back to him, she is a wild woman who is off running here and there but comes back to him and he doesn't want her to because he cannot stop himself from wanting to be with her
Come on love, don't you look back...
He calls her "love" because he still loves her, but he's telling her to move on with her life and forget about him
Who's gonna taste your saltwater kisses...
Kissing her face after she has been crying???
Who's going to tame the heart of thee?
He knows she is carefree and he couldn't keep her tied down so he wonders again, who is going to be the guy that gets her to commit
My take...
