the man desperately wants to make love with this woman and he's willing to do anything - bathe her skin, wash her clothes, kiss her eyes, ect.
his feelings for her are sincere but naturally he wants more - he wants sex. candy=sex.
"Oh, and I'm often found explaining
But to her it plays out all the same
and although I'm left defeated
It gets held against my name
I know you got plenty to offer baby
But I guess I've taken quite enough
well I'm some stain there on your bed sheet
You're my diamond in the rough"
these lines sum up the situation. he's trying to explain to her that his feelings for her are true, but to her, it doesn't matter, he's like every other man and she wont give up her virginity because she's afraid that's all he's after. she says no, and tries to tell him "i've got more to offer than just sex".
so he says to her, I'll be here waiting for you - you're worth it.
the last lines are all the possible reasons that the woman is waiting.. the things that are keeping him from having sex with her.
cut throats/jagged ends = surrounding world,relatives, judgemental people, ect
cheap and sugary philosophies= old fashioned values/morals that people live by such as the saying "waiting till marriage"
angels and their halos = one's religion
According to the singer, the song is about the spark, or candy which is there at the beginning of every relationship but leaves after a while. It's about finding that spark again and thus saving the relationship.
