I think I'm the only one who really thinks this, but it seems like it's about two lovers, having sex, I think.
"Back to street where we began, feeling as good a lovers can, you know, now we're feeling so good." They're having sex, in the place they first made love, hence the "back to the street where we began." It feels good.
"Picking up things we shouldn't read." They're lusting each other.
"It looks like the end of history as we know, it's just the end of the world." They're in ecstasy about how great it is.
"Back to the street where we began, feeling as good as love, you could, you can." Once again, they're back in the same place, and it feels good.
"Into a place where thoughts can bloom, into a room where it's nine in the afternoon." They're having dirty thoughts about each other, and it's nine at night.
"And we know that it could be, and we know that it should, and you know that you feel it too." We know we can make love, we should. You know that you want me like I want you.
"Cause it's nine in the afternoon, and your eyes are the size of the moon, you could cause you can so you do, we're feeling so good, just the way that we do when it's nine in the afternoon, and your eyes are the size of the moon, you could cause you can so you do, we're feeling so good." It's nine at night. Their eyes are wide open because of their love-making. He's saying they could make love, can make love, so they do, and it feels good.
"Back to the street, down to our feet, losing the feeling of feeling unique, do you know what I mean?" Back in the same place again, stripped down to just their socks, having sex in the same place, but not in a bad way.
"Back to the place, where we used to say, 'man it feels good to feel this way!' now I know what I mean." Back in the same place, saying that it feels good, just like they first did.
"Back to the street, back to the place, back to the room where it all began." Once again, saying they're back in the same place, down to the room, of their first time.
Chorus repeats, til it fades out.
I don't know if anyone agrees, that's just my take on the song.
