Story Behind The Song
A gradual change of meaning in the chorus "That is Appropriate" throughout the song: it starts about the person being seduced by someone, but it being somewhat a forbidden thing.
Then it becomes clear the person gets more emotionally involved, and gets to the point of wanting to become (or becoming) unfaithful to an existing long-term relationship or marriage.

Lyrics
I've been thinking about you girl
I've been thinking about you
I've been dreaming about you girl
I've been dreaming about you
More than appropriate
I think I can tell you now
How I'm feeling about you
But you don't want me to lie
'Cause I'm still living my old life
And that is appropriate (x2)
Yeah that is appropriate (x2)
You simply just can't see how
Still living there with her
I would be loving you
You just don't believe it
And that is appropriate
