Dec 1st 2015!⃝Let me start with saying this is my favorite song.
Now, to me, this song is a break up song. They got into a fight, and she broke it off.
"There must be something in the water."
This is probably referring to some sort of alcohol, most likely vodka.
"And there must be something about your daughter. She said our love ain't nothing but a monster with 2 heads."
He's venting with someone (her dad?). He is saying that there is something wrong with her because she's calling their love a monster.
"I turn to you, you're all I see. Our love's a monster with 2 heads and one heartbeat."
(Here is where the romantic part is, a big reason why, I think, you'd want this song for you two.) This demonstrates how much he cares about her. They have 2 heads so they don't always agree but one heartbeat shows how much they are in tune with each other, at least to him.
"We just got caught up in the moment"
Here's the fight. People say a lot of things when they're angry, easily getting caught in the moment. It's not a good moment either as demonstrated by the next couple lines.
"Why don't you call me in the morning instead"
He wants her to sleep on whatever just happened. He doesn't want her to make a rash decision.
"Before we turn into a monster with 2 heads"
This time around being a 2-headed monster is a bad thing. There was no mention of their shared heart beat and he's trying to prevent it.
"I hope to god I'll love you harder"
He hopes he will be able to. He doesn't know if he can due to a seemingly imminent break up.
"I hope to god I'll love you longer"
He's really hoping to get more time with her.
"If only I could live forever"
This one is pretty open. A lot of people yearn for this but in context, it seems like he would want time to convince her to stay.
"If only I could hold you longer"
Here it seems like the break up happened or is about to happen. He is wishing he could have more time to keep her close.
