the thing i wanted to address in this song is that feeling you get when you have a friend of the opposite gender, and eventually you begin having feelings for her/him, yet you don't know quite how to cope with these feelings.
Lyrics
every now and then i slip out of truth
every now and then i get a clue
and even though i channel understanding
the truth i find brings me right to you
sometimes things seem much easier
in theory 1+1 is always 2
but empirical knowledge tells me otherwise
the fact that i know that i want you too.
