Basically this is the common tale, about a good guy who is in love with a woman, who has a thing for bad guys, probably he's her best friend, therefore he knew all the sorrow that she has for these bad relationships, but this will never change, since she needs to find out what is wrong with her, and this is, a low self esteem, that's why she can stand abuse and humillation.
The last part of the song, is almost like a prayer, he wants that she understand, what is wrong and change it, but this will never gonna happen. The whole song is claim, a wish, saddly love can't change people, they need to change by themselves.
The song also has a hint about ages, little jeannie probably is a young woman around 20 years, the guy probably is an older guy 30 or 40 years old, someone who knows that Jeannie wants to be in love, but she can't even love herself, that's why he can't be with her, he wants a change on her perspective.
And I want you to be my acrobat
(Its a claim about trusting each other, like acrobats in the circus, she can't fully trust on him, that's why they can't perfom the act of love),
