Is "Iris" a Love Song?

Some people seem to think that the Goo Goo Dolls' song "Iris" is a love song.

Personally, I think it's begging for a restraining order. Hell, I creeped out women with mere sonnets describing their beauty, much less anything with the lines of
    You’re the closest to heaven that i’ll
    Ever be
    And I don’t want to go home right now
Or
    When everything’s made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
John Hinckley, Jr., might have hummed this tune were it around in 1981.

 
To say Noggle, one first must be able to say the "Nah."
