There's a phrase, "Pure as driven snow", which is a rather British sarcastic barb about the Purity of a person. Eldritch even mentions purity and alludes to it with the whole marry me and white bed. So maybe the song is a sarcastic affair towards a certain person?

"think it twice but never never learn..." in the context of a song about a lost relationship (Took a lot to live a lot like you) this is one of the most heartbreaking lines ever recorded.
