Particularly "Tonight is tellin' us we're way too young" - that came across as if it should end with "to care about being responsible" or something similar. Absent any grand statement on abstinence from the band, either view works, I think. (and even if they mean either of the two, that doesn't mean we should settle for that if we prefer the other...)

Perhaps it's just my Bible-belt culture, but there's not no reason to think "too young" codes "too young to have sex." "I've got forever on the tip of my tongue" then reads as "we're so much in love that we'll no doubt get married and we can have sex at that point," and "I just wanna free fall for awhile" reads as "just hold me as I fall more deeply in love with you." But none of that explains how they come to this opinion. Does something magical happen when she sticks her hand in his back pocket? But if it's not too young for sex, I don't see what else it might be, because there's nothing happening in the song over and above their desire for each other.

Hint: It's really f'ing good. bahaha…you guys are great. you can stream the rest of the album on cmt.com or rhapsody.com if you care to see whether the rest of the album makes you want to frolic in a meadow with puppies and butterflies.

Doesn’t sound like abstinence to me.
