I never realized the lyrics were so simple. They’re very sensuos as they describe a couple either before or during a sex act. Teasing plays a large part in a sexual relationship, in any kind of relationship. He sings about giving just enough to keep his lover wanting more. The deliciousness of having your lover slowly swinging above you like a pendulum but never touching.

Also, I’m sure we’ve all been in situations where “profane words” spill out of our mouths during those heated moments. You simply must listen to the song to get the full effect.
