Ok, well, I'm assuming I'm the only guy responding on this page so here are my thoughts. She's tired of shooting guys with cupids arrow. She wants to give it way to the girls who are how she used to be. She's met somebody new. Somebody she wants to get serious with. She wants it to work. I'm pretty sure glory box isn't referring to a dress in a box. Glory box is a certain part of the female anatomy. You know, the part that has power over men. Glory box rocks!!

Glory Box is an Australian term for a box of womens clothes etc that is stored in preperation for marriage. I think this is significant when you look at the lyrics. Great song too!

I agree with most ppl. I think the song is about a woman about to commit to a relationhship (possibly marriage, given the title) after having fooled around for too long. It's ime to get serious, to grow up, become a woman! Sideline though: do you think this would inappropriate for a wedding dance??? I would love this, but all this talk of stripping, sexiness, etc...

I relate to this song so much. It's a woman singing about how she's tired of fooling around and being careless with her heart and letting men be careless with her. Now, she has finally found a man to give her heart to and commit to, and she wants to make sure that he's true and worth the commitment of her heart.....GREAT SONG TO MAKE OUT TO! :)
